Customer Response

The only ice cream recipe book you need!
This is one of the most adorable little cookbooks I have ever seen. It has the cutest artwork, in keeping with most of the Ben and Jerry's ice cream designs on their cartons. It has a cute story in the beginning which explains how they started in the business and became successful. It's a cool story. In the beginning of the book they explain different techniques. For example, if you are using fruit they tell you which fruit to add sugar to and which ones not to. There is a section for their Top ten flavors, then some fruit recipes, chocolate, of course, and frozen yogurt and other treats like cakes and cookies. They have three cream base recipes and number one is their most popular and that's the one I have been using with a lot of success. I made the chocolate chip cookie dough recipe and I thought it tasted almost 100% like the real thing. Maybe even better because it was so fresh. (For reference I use the Cuisinart IC-30 stainless steel 2 quart ice cream maker)For $10 this is a must-have for anyone that owns an ice cream maker. The recipes are simple and yield great, tasty ice cream.

Too much non-recipe related info
I was really disappointed in this book. The recipes are great but they are less than half of the book. There are way too many pages of the history of Ben & Jerry and not enough ice cream recipes.

Make smooth, creamy, rich ice cream
Easy to make ice cream by guys who know all about ice cream. Very, Very good stuff.

Must have if you make home-made ice cream
Great book! I was surprised to find out that it was published in 1987 but the recipes are timeless. I was also surprised to find that it includes an interesting and enjoyable history of how Ben & Jerry came to be such successful ice cream makers! An average cookbook will just list ingredients and how to mix and process them. This book goes way beyond that and should be on the shelf of anyone who wants to make GREAT home-made ice cream!

Just what I was looking for!
You cannot go wrong with this book! It's not only recipes, but tips and tricks and cleverly told background stories. Not a fan of the chocolate chip cookie recipe though I must say. Not sweet enough for mine and my family's tastes.
