Hazelnut Mascarpone Ice Cream

A long, slow infusion of hazelnuts and milk sets this ice cream apart from other recipes, so don't try to rush the process.

Homemade Nutella

Hazelnuts, cocoa powder, confectionary/icing sugar, oil, vanilla extract and your blender is all you need to make Homemade Nutella. It's unbelievably good!

Scooped: Ginger Mint and Chocolate-Covered Espresso Bean Gelato

Gelato just might be the most misunderstood form of ice cream in our great, ice cream-lovin' nation. We know it's smooth, intense and delicious but what makes a gelato real gelato? Here are the three elements that differentiate real-deal gelato from the traditional American stuff, and a recipe for a caffeinated twist on mint 'n' chip.

Hazelnut Cookies With Milk Chocolate

Homemade hazelnut butter gives these soft and chewy cookies a rich flavor, one that's best supported by a light drizzle of milk chocolate. If you'd rather not temper the chocolate, give it a rough chop and stir it into the finished dough instead; the results will be a little more homey in appearance, but they'll taste just as fancy.

Stracciatella Gelato (Sweet Cream Chocolate Chip)

Stracciatella gelato is such a simple recipe that it demands the best of the best; seek out high-quality chocolate and milk for great results.

Flourless Nutella Chocolate Torte

There's not a speck of flour in this one layer torte, so the result is richer, fudgier, and loads more sinful than any brownie.

Better Than Snickers Ice Cream

The ice cream base is a simple one, peanut butter with a hefty enough dose of vanilla to simulate nougat.

Chocolate Hazelnut Torte

This torte is a classically dense, rich dessert. Hazelnuts rounds out this cake with a wonderfully toasty flavor, while a healthy dose of vanilla provides a gently sweet aroma to balance out all that dark chocolate.

Scooped: Pistachio Gelato with Strawberry Sauce

When I started to run out of things to eat strawberries with—by which I mean I got tired of them sliced with frothed cream—I started poking through my pantry for inspiration. I came across some pistachio butter and knew I need look no further. Pistachio butter (there's a recipe here) is ridiculously nutty and almost unbearably complex, with a lusciousness that puts Nutella to shame.

Nutella Eggnog

It's like eating Nutella straight out of the container but without the guilt! Strike that, it's got all the guilt, but at least it's got some booze mixed in there to help you deal with it.
