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.

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.

Jeni Britton Bauer's Tuscan Sundae

The flavors here are so complementary and play off each other perfectly: the salt and caramelized sugar in the ice cream, the warm honey and Vin Santo sauce—delicious

Vanilla Bean Panna Cotta

Panna cotta is one of my favorite desserts, equally delicious as a delicate dish all on its own or as a creamy canvas for seasonal fruits.

Scotch Vanilla Bean Ice Cream

This is everything vanilla ice cream should be: impossibly rich and smooth with deep notes of honey, caramel, and flowers. A good Highland Scotch (I'm partial to Glenlivet 12) brings out the best flavors of vanilla while also adding depth. There's a good amount of salt to keep you coming back for another bite. Add salt slowly and adjust it to your tastes.

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.

Tiramisu Ice Cream with Mocha Ripple

If you love tiramisu and ice cream you've got to try this Tiramisu Ice Cream with Mocha Ripple. It transforms tiramisu into the perfect frozen treat.

Spiced Vanilla Ice Cream Recipe | Scooped

I have long resented the use of the word "vanilla" to mean bland, blah, and boring. Real vanilla is deep and complex. Anyone who thinks vanilla is boring hasn't tasted this ice cream.

Fruity No-Churn Ice Cream

This ice cream relies on the power of a stand mixer, rather than a proper ice cream machine, and can be made with any sort of freeze-dried fruit.

Mr. Softee-Style Vanilla Bean Soft-Serve

Let your ice cream thaw to the point of melting before serving; the gelatin will keep it from turning into soup.
