While many may assume that frozen custard is simply a variation of ice cream, there’s a crucial difference that sets it apart: the inclusion of eggs. Unlike ice cream, which typically contains little to no eggs, frozen custard relies on this essential ingredient to create its unique texture and flavor profile.
In addition to eggs, frozen custard often boasts a lower fat content compared to ice cream. This is largely due to the increased egg presence and reduced heavy cream usage.
With these key differences in mind, it’s time to indulge in our curated list of frozen custard recipes. Ranging from simple and indulgent to decadent and rich, you’re about to discover your new favorite dessert – a creamy, dreamy treat that’s sure to satisfy your sweet tooth.

Without any overpowering notes or cloying sweetness, this vanilla-flavored treat is a masterclass in restraint.

The result is a rich and indulgent treat with delightful little pockets of sweet crunchiness.
Make no mistake – this recipe is well worth the effort it takes to create it, as it’s a true winner in my book.
