If you're a fan of homemade ice cream and delicious desserts, then "Ben and Jerry's Homemade Ice Cream and Dessert Book" is a must-have for your kitchen collection. The recipes for the sweet cream base and chocolate base alone make this book worth every penny.
The sweet cream base serves as the perfect canvas for a multitude of flavor combinations, while the chocolate base provides a rich and indulgent option for chocolate lovers. Both bases are versatile and easy to customize, allowing you to create endless variations of delectable frozen treats.
I also appreciate the inclusion of raw egg recipes, as I personally have no issues with consuming them. I'm not a germaphobe and feel there is no problem eating raw eggs, but that's just me.
Overall, this book is a treasure trove of mouthwatering recipes and inspiration for anyone with a sweet tooth. Whether you're a novice or experienced home cook, you'll find plenty of delightful desserts to satisfy your cravings. A truly great dessert book that belongs on every dessert lover's shelf!

The recipes are excellent, if outdated (original publish date is 1987). The binding has broken from overuse.

This is a venerable cookbook for a reason -- the recipes are by now practically canonical reading for home ice cream makers!!! And the recipes are ORIGINAL and GOOD. When the book first came out, I seem to remember that they were truly revolutionary!! I wasn't making ice cream then, but I remember how popular the book was, ESPECIALLY in New England.
I would only add a caveat: we are now as a country far more concerned with salmonella and raw eggs, which is a GOOD thing. For Pete's sake, make sure your raw eggs are pasteurized, cook them yourself, or else use a pasteurized egg product! Otherwise, this book has stood the test of time handsomely!!!

When I bought an ice-cream maker I set a low bar for myself: I might be able to make something worth eating after a few months. After bombing out with a couple of recipes from the machine user guide and failing to accurately deconstruct B&J recipes from the grocery store, I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw this book. I also couldn't believe that the recipes accurately recreate much of what B&J sells at the store. Some of the recipes are even better than the store bought versions which have a lot of added preservative ingredients. The Oreo Mint and Chocolate Covered Almonds Mocha stand out and are probably better than any ice-cream you can buy at the grocery store. You can easily simulate and improve on B&J's more recent thin mint ice-cream with the mint recipe and kroger's fudge enrobed cookies.
On the other hand, this only covers B&J recipes into the 1980s. So if you want to simulate something later like Chunky Monkey, you will have improvise from the banana ice-cream recipe. I tried it and it wasn't remotely as good as the bought version.
A few recipes seem like duds to me. But you will have to try everything for yourself. I'm...

I bought this book back in the 1980s when it was first printed. It's so dog-eared and has food spills on it from years of use, I decided to buy a fresh copy. Homemade ice cream, for me, used to be a complex, time-consuming endeavor before this book. Ben and Jerry share their recipes and ice cream tips, which are absolutely simple to make. No cooking required. But let's address the raw egg issue and how I solved it.
I read several comments about the raw eggs called for in the recipes. Since the 1980s I always made this ice cream with raw eggs and no illnesses. Maybe I'm just more paranoid as I get older, but I didn't want to use raw eggs this time. But I didn't want to leave the eggs out, as I think they are essential to the consistency of the ice cream. And I didn't want the hassle of cooking the recipe. My solution was using pasteurized shell eggs.
I read some reviews here and elsewhere and found that you can purchase pasteurized shell eggs. A company called Davidson's makes them. They're not easy to find in the Bay Area where I live, but there was one store (Bristol Farms) that sold them in San Francisco. I bought a dozen there.
Also, I...
