S'mores and ice cream, two of my favorite things. The s'mores ice cream sandwiches that I made last summer for National Ice Cream Day were such a hit that I decided to make s'mores ice cream this year to celebrate the yummy summer holiday.

An icy popsicle coats a creamy ice cream center to create a refreshing and nostalgic frozen treat. I had a berry puree of raspberries, strawberries and POG (Passion-Orange-Guava juice) from some other Popsicles I made and some homemade French vanilla ice cream. It turns out that this is a divine combo.

Homemade French vanilla ice cream, a raspberry-strawberry puree and whole blueberries unite to make a patriotic Popsicle, perfect for your 4th of July celebrations. The Rocket pops of my childhood were the inspiration behind these red, white and blue treats but my take on them is a little bit more wholesome with the addition of homemade ice cream and blueberries, raspberries and strawberries instead of sugary colored juices .

Magnum ice cream bars are now available in the United States. As part of the Foodbuzz Tastemaker Program, I received a free box of the classic flavor ice cream bars which consist of silky vanilla bean ice cream covered in a thick layer of Belgian milk chocolate.

Valentine's Day wouldn't be complete without chocolate and heart-shaped goodies. So I made my quick and easy One-Bowl Brownies in the shape of hearts, served à la mode with a red raspberry coulis.

I now make eggnog ice cream every holiday just to have these ice cream sandwiches. The combination of eggnog and ginger is a match made in heaven.

Eggnog only comes out once a year so I try to incorporate it into my holiday treats. A few years ago, I made eggnog ice cream and it has now become a holiday tradition.

There is something about homemade ice cream which is simply the best. Fortunately, making ice cream is so easy these days. You can stir the ice cream to reach your desired consistency. A word of warning, though: if you take a bite while it's at milkshake or soft-serve consistency, you may never finish stirring it. It's that good.

Now that I'm hooked on banana "ice cream" (an easy, creamy frozen dessert simply made of bananas) I decided to try adding chocolate, which is never a bad decision, in my opinion.

Could it be that bananas are the only ingredient in this frozen treat and yet it has the creamy texture of traditional ice cream? Unbelievably, yes! It is so easy to make (you don't even need an ice cream maker). And I love the fact that when my son now screams for ice cream, I can give him this -- an elegant form of frozen bananas.
