David Lebovitz – The Perfect Scoop

This book was a gift for Christmas 2010, along with a shiny new appliance. An ice cream maker!!!  I had no idea I was missing anything by not having this machine earlier, but now on Jan 12th, I am reformed.  Homemade ice cream is THE single most amazing dessert discovery I had this year. OK OK, I know the year is so new the plastic hasn’t all been ripped off yet, but I am passionate about the homemade ice cream delights in my freezer.

I wouldn’t have been able to get properly started without David’s book of frozen wonder. I have tried blue cheese and honey ice cream (good but weird), gianduja (a milk chocolate ice cream made with hazelnut infused milk – a true worldly joy), chocolate, rocky road, guiness-chocolate, vanilla with and without chocolate chips…  If you own a machine or are thinking of getting one – The Perfect Scoop is THE perfect accessory.  You will not be disappointed.

The Perfect Scoop is a perfect 5 stars.  Enjoy!
