We're thrilled with all the creative entries in the Create Your Own Ice Cream Contest. Narrowing it down to ten finalists was tough, and left us weak with cravings. Here are the ten that we felt best took David Lebovitz's basic formula and turned it into delicious and creative treats. Vote on your favorite below!

So what's the next challenge? I think you should do another "Cook the Issue" challenge. That really challenged me to try different recipes and techniques that I probably would not have otherwise tried.
