Malted Milk Chocolate Ice Cream

Seek out high quality milk chocolate for this recipe; Valrhona and Callebaut have very good versions. Freezing the malted milk balls before adding them to the ice cream will keep the temperature down and prevent melting during the final minute of churning.

Malted Chocolate Milkshake

What's the secret to making a chocolate milkshake better? Add malt! A healthy dose of malted milk powder makes this milkshake taste like a frozen malted milk ball.

Like malted milkshakes? This simple and creamy dessert is a blast of milk chocolate and malt, with crunchy malt candy on top.

Buttermilk Ice Cream

This ice cream boasts big buttermilk flavor, but it has a texture that's light and fresh.

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.

Classic Vanilla Ice Milk

Like sorbet, ice milk is light and refreshing on a hot summer's day, but with the creamy, soft consistency you'll find in the best ice cream.

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.

Buttered Popcorn Ice Cream

Sweet and salty, rich and buttery, fragrant with freshly popped popcorn—this ice cream is an easy choice for movie night.

Like an Almond Joy candy bar, but better.

Bi-Rite Creamery's Smooth and Mellow Chocolate Ice Cream

This may be the best version of a milk chocolate ice cream that I've ever had. It's definitely chocolate-forward, and plenty rich, but it really lets the milkiness of lower cocoa chocolates shine. Should you want to branch out to peanut butter chocolate swirls, rocky roads, or chocolate brownie chunk ice creams, this should be your base.
