This Homemade Strawberry Ice Cream is a simple and refreshing treat, bursting with fresh strawberries, rich cream, and a hint of vanilla. The perfect summer dessert that’s sure to satisfy your sweet tooth! 🍓🥄
🛒 Ingredients:
✅ For the Ice Cream:
2 cups (480 ml) heavy cream 🥄
1 cup (240 ml) whole milk 🥛
1 cup (200g) fresh strawberries, hulled and chopped 🍓
¾ cup (150g) granulated sugar 🍬
1 teaspoon vanilla extract 🍦
👩🍳 Instructions:
1️⃣ Prepare the Strawberries:
In a medium bowl, mash the fresh strawberries with a fork or potato masher.
Stir in ½ cup of sugar and let them sit for about 10 minutes to draw out the juices.
2️⃣ Make the Ice Cream Base:
In a large bowl, whisk together the heavy cream, whole milk, remaining sugar, and vanilla extract until the sugar is dissolved.
3️⃣ Combine the Ingredients:
Gently fold the mashed strawberries into the ice cream base, mixing until everything is well combined.
4️⃣ Churn the Ice Cream:
Pour the mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer’s instructions (usually for about 20-25 minutes).
If you don’t have an ice cream maker, pour the mixture into a freezer-safe container, cover, and freeze, stirring every 30 minutes for the first few hours to break up any ice crystals.
5️⃣ Freeze & Serve:
Once the ice cream reaches the desired consistency, transfer it to a container and freeze for 2-4 hours or until firm.
Scoop, serve, and enjoy this creamy, fruity delight! 🍦🍓
🎉 A creamy and refreshing treat that’s perfect for any occasion! 😍✨
