I almost skipped vanilla because it sounds boring, then I made this Tahitian Vanilla Bean Dream in the Ninja Creami and realized real vanilla bean paste is a different animal. You get those little black flecks and a warm, floral flavor that no extract touches. Whole milk, heavy cream, and sweetened condensed milk make it rich and dense, the kind of scoop that holds its shape on a cone. My mom, who claims she doesn't like sweets, ate a bowl standing at my counter. Don't rush the 24-hour freeze, it needs the full time to spin smooth.
