We love the deep flavor of coffee ice cream in the summer. Adding egg yolks yields a richer texture than early American ice cream recipes could produce. For superior flavor, use the best dark-roast beans you can find.
Just berries, milk, cream, and eggs — a simple formula that lets the fresh fruit flavor shine through.

Grapenut ice cream is a vanilla-based ice cream with the namesake breakfast cereal mixed in during the churning process. The cereal is added the same way Oreo cookies are added to cookies ’n’ cream ice cream, so by the time a scoop gets to you, the cereal is soft rather than crunchy, and its flavor has seeped into the vanilla base. This ice cream is nutty and sweet, and it’s delicious with warm maple syrup drizzled on top.
A rich custard base makes this vanilla ice cream “French vanilla,” while using an actual vanilla bean gives it a more intense flavor than you’d get with extract.

This delicious maple walnut ice cream gets its rich flavor from two simple steps: concentrating the maple syrup by simmering it for 10 minutes, and toasting the walnuts.
This lemon sherbet manages to be simultaneously rich, creamy, zingy, and light, all while taking less than 15 minutes to prepare. Almost an ice cream, this frozen dessert is in a class all its own.
