Oreo Ice Cream

This ice cream may look like plain chocolate, but it's not—it's a super concentrated version of cookies 'n cream. Its rich flavor and color come from crushed Oreo wafers (which you can feel free to buy or make from scratch), with a handful of crushed sandwich cookies folded in at the end. It tastes just like Oreos, but in a creamy, scoop-shop form.

Fresh Mint Ice Cream Recipe | Cook the Book

I once took my friend to an ice cream shop that made mint ice cream from real mint, as opposed to the artificial stuff you find it most places. After taking one bite she alleged that it didn't taste...

Cookies 'n Cream Ice Cream

Don't hesitate to use real Oreos in this recipe, but if you'd like to go all the way, follow my Fauxreo recipe for a 100% homemade version. There is a gluten free variation with the Fauxreo recipe, so it may be used to make this ice cream gluten free as well.

The Best Mint Chip Ice Cream

No mint leaves can match the charged blast of a slug of mint extract, but fresh mint ice cream has an unbeatable roundness of flavor you just can't find in a bottle. Add in lacy straciatella swirls that don't turn brittle like regular frozen chocolate for a mint chip ice cream that'll put all the others to bed.

Chocolate Thin Mint Ice Cream

Fair warning: this is some really rich chocolate ice cream. It's plenty dark, and so pumped with chocolate that it melts more into pudding than custard. The mint keeps things light enough, but a little of this goes a long way.

Homemade Oreo 'Blizzards'

Use the crappiest milk, cream and eggs you can find. Bottom shelf. Good quality dairy and eggs have a wonderful flavor and color that will shine through and, I'm horrified to say, that's not what we're going for here.

Coffee 'N Cookies 'N Cream Ice Cream

This recipe blends fragrant, creamy Tahitian vanilla bean with ground coffee for a sweet, rich, coffee-tinged base for crushed Oreos.

Oatmeal Cookie Ice Cream

This brown sugar ice cream is infused with a cinnamon stick, toasted oats, and a vanilla bean, then studded with crispy oat clusters, crunchy pecans, and chewy dried fruit. Tart cherries work especially well, but dried fruits such as cranberries and black mission figs work well too, so feel free to use whatever you like best. It's everything you love about oatmeal cookies in a scoop of homemade ice cream.

Mint Julep Ice Cream

What bourbon you use is in this ice cream is up to you. I'm partial to Bulleit, which has enough spicy rye kick to cut through an ocean of cream. But if you like it in your...

Scooped: White Chocolate Mint Ice Cream with Pomegranate Molasses

White chocolate, of course, isn't chocolate. It's comparisons to the dark stuff that so frequently disappoint tasters. So let's step past the unfortunate comparisons and consider white chocolate on its own terms. Once you get by the whole chocolate malapropism, white chocolate's flavor is pretty awesome: a buttery vanilla with strong hints of mint and other leafy herbs.
