Ingredients: 1 cup 2 sticks unsalted butter, softened. 1 cup granulated sugar. 2 large eggs. 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract. 2 cups all-purpose flour. 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder. 1 teaspoon baking soda. 1/2 teaspoon salt. 2 cups semisweet chocolate chunks or chips.

Ginger miso ice cream is a unique mix of sweet and savory tastes. The mild heat of the ginger goes well with the umami richness of the miso. In a delicious way, this creamy treat is different from regular ice cream.

Ingredients: 1 cup heavy cream. 1 cup whole milk. 1/2 cup granulated sugar. 3 tablespoons white miso paste. 1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger. 4 large egg yolks.

Instructions: In a saucepan, combine heavy cream, whole milk, and sugar over medium heat. Stir until sugar dissolves and mixture is warm. Whisk in miso paste and grated ginger until fully combined. In a separate bowl, whisk egg yolks. Gradually pour the warm cream mixture into the yolks, whisking constantly to prevent scrambling. Return the mixture to the saucepan and cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until it thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon. Remove from heat and strain through a fine mesh sieve into a clean bowl. Cover and refrigerate until thoroughly chilled, preferably overnight. Churn the chilled mixture in an ice cream maker according to manufacturer's instructions. Transfer churned ice cream to a container and freeze until firm, usually about 4 hours or overnight.
