I've made sweet corm ice cream -- it tasts like rich vanilla ice cream.

Cherry chcolate chip!

I can post some tomorrow when I'm at a computer (on my iPhone with a sick kid on me!)
Check back tomorrow!

OK -- anyone with these awesome recipes -- got links?

For those that like choc chips in their ice cream, you should try this: melt the chocolate and add some cream (maybe 1/4 c for 12 oz of chocolate, you're basically making a ganache) and then pour the mixture onto a cookie sheet and let it cool (put it in the freezer if you need to harden it up faster). Break it into chunks and use that instead of the chips.
Adding the cream makes the chocolate bitable when frozen as opposed to super hard little chocolate chips. It's much more like the chips in Graeter's ice cream. SO worth the extra time.

Banana with chopped up kit kats,

Homemade ice cream addict here (seriously, we had to put it away for a while)

My favorites are: chocolate peanut butter patty with a fudge ripple; coffee chip; cannoli; red velvet cake; vanilla with chocolate covered potato chips and a salted caramel swirl, and cookies and cream.

Crap now I wanna make some!

I like to visit brown eyes bakers web site for inspiration

So far our favorite was Mexican chocolate.

A friend gave me a jar of homemade spiced peaches and I would like to try to incorporate that into some homemade ice cream.

I made gueniss (sp?) once and it was fabulous!

My FIL makes the best peach ice cream with fresh soft peaches OMG. It's been years but there's nothing like fresh fruit ice cream.

btw I haven't made this but had some this summer--lavender-lemon. YUM

He's also made a delicious chocolate hazelnut (essentially nutella). Yum.

PP here, they key is to use the right kind of coconut milk - Chaokoh, nothing else compares (this also goes for cooking other foods with coconut milk).

Oooh, coconut. That sounds great.

Lavender strawberry.... Yum!

I love the fresh mint ice cream as well. Basically anything with a fresh, herbal taste makes a wonderful homemade ice cream that will me distinctly different than what you can buy in the store.
