Frosted creams are a family of frozen desserts that are made with a combination of cream, milk, and sugar that is churned and then frozen. They are typically flavored with vanilla, chocolate, or fruit, and may also contain nuts, candy, or other mix-ins. Frosted creams can be made with or without eggs, and the type of milk and cream used can vary depending on the desired richness and texture. Some popular types of frosted creams include ice cream, gelato, sorbet, and sherbet.
This article provides recipes for five different types of frosted creams:
* **Vanilla Ice Cream:** This classic ice cream recipe is made with whole milk, cream, sugar, and vanilla extract. It is churned in an ice cream maker until it reaches a thick and creamy consistency.

FROSTED GINGER CREAMS
I have many recipes featuring ginger, but these soft cookies are real gems. The hint of lemon in the cream cheese frosting is a nice complement.

Steps:
- 1. Cream together butter and sugar. Add eggs. Beat until light and fluffy. Add molasses. Blend in.
- 2. Sift together flour, ginger, cloves, cinnamon and salt.
- 3. Add baking soda to water.
- 4. Add dry ingredients and water to egg mixture alternatively.
- 5. Bake at 350 degrees in a jelly roll pan for 25 minutes or until cake tests done. Cool cake before frosting.
- 6. To make frosting add brown sugar, milk and butter to a saucepan. Bring to a boil. Remove from heat and add powdered sugar to thicken. Add 1 teaspoon vanilla. Frost the cake immediately while frosting is warm. Spread as you pour. Frosting sets fast and is hard to spread otherwise. I can not see why you can not frost while the cake is still warm. It might make it easier! Just a tip.

FROSTED CREAMS
As a child my mother would make these and I hated them. As a child I wanted chocolate, but now as an adult with different tastes, I love these bars. They are sweet, depending on how you frost them, but they are a great escape from chocolate. Another "grown-up" recipe!

Tips:
- For a smooth and creamy frosting, make sure your cream cheese is at room temperature before whipping it.
- If you don't have any heavy cream, you can substitute it with milk, but the frosting will be slightly thinner.
- To make your frosting extra fluffy, whip it for at least 5 minutes until it reaches stiff peaks.
- If you're using a fruit puree in your frosting, make sure it's smooth and free of any lumps.
- To prevent your frosting from curdling, add the sugar and butter in small increments while beating on low speed.
- If your frosting does curdle, try adding a tablespoon of milk or cream and beat on low speed until it comes together.
- For a fun and festive touch, you can add sprinkles, chopped nuts, or candy pieces to your frosting.
- Frosted creams can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, or in the freezer for up to 2 months.
- When you're ready to serve, let your frosted cream thaw in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes before enjoying.
