Snap, Mallow, Pop! - Marshmallow Ice Cream with Buttery Rice Krispie Clusters |
It is my last day in New York, so I thought I'd sneak in one last pint of ice cream. I've had so much success with Ample Hills this trip that I figured I'd go with them again to make it a clean sweep. This time, its the Snap, Mallow Pop! flavor which is their implementation of Rice Krispie Bars in ice cream format. Rice Krispie Bars were a regular treat when I was a kid so I am very much looking forward to this flavor.
Removing the lid shows a very textured pint of ice cream. The rice krispie clusters are everywhere. Eating my way in, the clusters are crunchy of course, they seem a bit toasted compared to rice krispie bars but it does not affect the flavor. The marshmallow base is thick, and connects the clusters as you'd expect -- it really does taste like a rice krispie bar. As I ate my way down, I started to notice a mild buttery flavor mixed in. It did not hit me right away, it was something that built up over the course of the pint.
I really enjoyed this pint. Another successful Ample Hills flavor! If you're in the New York area and like bold flavors with a lot of mix-ins then check out this brand. They always seem to know how to load a pint filled with interesting ingredients yet still get the mix right. I'm already looking forward to my next trip to New York so that I can try more flavors.
