A creamy and refreshing strawberry ice cream made with simple ingredients, perfect for hot days! Ingredients:
2 cups fresh strawberries, hulled and chopped
1 cup heavy cream (whipping cream)
1 cup whole milk
¾ cup sweetened condensed milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 tablespoons sugar (adjust to taste) Instructions:
Prepare the strawberries:
Place the chopped strawberries in a bowl, add sugar, and mash them slightly with a fork or blender. Let them sit for 10–15 minutes to release their natural juices. Mix the base:
In a large bowl, whisk together the heavy cream, whole milk, sweetened condensed milk, and vanilla extract until well combined. Combine with strawberries:
Add the mashed strawberries (including their juice) to the mixture and stir well. Freeze the mixture:
Pour the mixture into a freezer-safe container.
Cover and freeze for at least 4–6 hours, stirring every 30 minutes during the first 2 hours to prevent ice crystals and ensure a creamy texture. Serve and enjoy:
Let the ice cream sit at room temperature for a few minutes before scooping.
Serve in bowls or cones and garnish with fresh strawberries if desired.
