I know I need a good scoop. I have a Zeroll copy but I'm thinking there must be something better.

Just take the whole carton with you to the sofa.

Any Tricks?

A hot water rinse in between each scoop. Works perfectly.

* side note....remove ice cream from the freezer 5-7 minutes before you scoop.

Everyone at my house is getting sterling silver dessert spoons stamped with words of wisdom.

I stick the carton in the micro for about 5 sec and then let sit until just softened around the edges.

This always rewards me with a nice scoop that is still mostly frozen.

Blue Bell Mexican Praline is my very favorite.

Huge chunks of the best praline I have ever enjoyed suspended butter pecan ice cream.

Heaven.

The FF matches a tat on the top right area of my right foot.

Hurt like a mofo but was so worth it.

The best scoop I've ever used has been a tupperware scoop I bought 20plus years ago. Still have it.

We've used one line this for years. Serious scoops. Not those dainty little balls. :eek:)
