I’ve been making homemade ice cream for many years now, and I’ve tried a wide variety of methods.
My very first foray into ice cream making was with a traditional ice cream maker, which used a freezer bowl attachment and dasher for my stand mixer.
The bowl would be frozen for at least 24 hours, then the machine would churn a liquid mixture in the frozen bowl until it was the consistency of soft-serve ice cream. It worked like a charm!
So when I learned about the Dash My Mug (and Dash My Pint) ice cream makers, I was intrigued! They worked on the same premise as a traditional machine, only smaller.
I purchased the Dash My Mug set a couple of years ago and have been using it ever since. I love that it makes small batches of ice cream that can be eaten right out of the mug.
To give you some inspiration, I’m sharing my favorite Dash ice cream recipes below.
If you have a Dash My Mug, these recipe are already scaled for that machine. If you’re using a Dash My Pint machine, just double the recipe. Easy peasy!
Recommended Equipment:
- Dash My Mug Ice Cream Maker (or Dash My Pint Ice Cream Maker)
- Small blender or immersion blender
- Silicone lids for the Dash Mug
1. Dash Chocolate Ice Cream
Let’s be honest, everyone needs a good recipe for a high-quality Dash chocolate ice cream.
This one uses just a few simple ingredients, like milk, cream, sugar, and cocoa powder, but the result is smooth and creamy, with just the right amount of chocolatey sweetness.
It’s a classic for a reason!
2. Dash Vanilla Ice Cream
If you’re a fan of the simple things in life, you should try this Dash vanilla ice cream! It’s made with actual vanilla extract, rather than artificial flavors.
It’s the quintessential soft-serve vanilla ice cream recipe, but if you want it to be a little firmer, just pop the mug back into the freezer for about 30 minutes and it will be perfect for scooping.
3. Dash Strawberry Ice Cream
My kids love any kind of frozen treat made with strawberries, and this Dash strawberry ice cream is a hit in our house!
It’s made with real strawberries that have been macerated with a little sugar, so their sweet juices really shine in this recipe.

I used fresh raspberries and a little bit of optional raspberry extract. Add in some chocolate chips and you’re set with a decadent treat!
