The Best One! - Jenny - Wisconsin
I am so glad I bought this book! We've had an ice cream maker for nearly 5 years, and my ice cream was so-so until I started using these recipes. It has the best basic ice cream recipes (vanilla & chocolate), and some very creative ones (green tea). ONly had this a couple months and we've been making a new batch at least once a week because this is better than store-bought ice cream--hands down! I served root beer floats (with vanilla ice cream, of course) to a party with rave reviews. It's the book!
