Whether you're a fan of plain vanilla or prefer your ice cream loaded with mix-ins, there's one thing we can probably all agree on—nothing beats homemade ice cream. It's rich, it's indulgent, and while it takes some effort, the end result always comes with an undeniable sense of pride. Here, we highlight some of our favorites, including Rosewater-and-Saffron Ice Cream, Vanilla Ice Cream with Brown Butter Crumble, and Roasted Peaches with Mascarpone Ice Cream. All you have to do is pick which one to make first.

This fragrant ice cream is redolent with flavor. It's traditionally served between two thin wafers to make ice cream sandwiches, but it's equally delicious on its own.

Vanilla Bean Ice Cream

Vanilla Bean Ice Cream

This exceptionally creamy ice cream relies on two unexpected ingredients: corn starch (to help thicken it) and cream cheese (to make it scoopable).

Brown butter, made by warming butter in a skillet until deeply golden, adds a wonderful nutty flavor to this chunky, streusel-like topping. Sprinkle the crumble on vanilla ice cream for outrageously good sundaes.

Be sure to use the best buttermilk you can get for this recipe: The ice cream is just as much about the rich, tangy buttermilk as it is the fragrant peaches.

Olive Oil Ice Cream

Go to Recipe

One of Portland, Oregon–based ice cream shop Salt & Straw's classic flavors, this Olive Oil Ice Cream is a perfect beginner batch to whip up. The combination of olive oil and whole milk in this ice cream results in a perfectly creamy and silky texture, no eggs or tempering required. You can even play with different nut oils (like hazelnut or walnut) in place of olive oil—just avoid those that are solid at room temperature, like coconut oil.
