Lemon Basil Chocolate Chip Ice Cream Sandwiches

If you've made a mint chocolate chip ice cream before, this recipe follows the same basic procedure. But while mint leaves are usually steeped in the cream for upwards of an hour or two before getting strained out, basil benefits more from a short initial steeping before getting blended into the base.

It's everything you love about oatmeal cookies in a scoop of homemade ice cream.

Scooped: Apple, Browned Butter, & Sour Cream Ice Cream

We wanted something to complement fall's palette of desserts: crumbles, crisps, cakes, and quickbreads, filled with apples, pears, walnuts, and cinnamon.
