Today I felt like making something a little extra sweet. Strawberry ice cream is one of my favorite flavors, and making your own at home is relatively easy, so I’ve found out.
A friend told me how to make this ice cream, and I’m going to share it with you. Let’s see how this recipe works out, shall we!? Oh, and best of all? You don’t need an ice cream maker!
How To Make Strawberry Ice Cream
firstly, we’re going to start with a can of sweetened condensed milk, heavy cream and of course strawberries. afterwards, to top our ice cream we’re going to toss on a bunch of Strawberry, which I also used in these strawberry cupcakes.
It’s not strawberry season here by any stretch of the imagination, for that reason, I’m going to make do with frozen strawberries. Additionally, I will just thaw them out before chopping them up! PS: I looked at the “fresh” strawberries at the grocery store, they looked disgusting, so that’s ultimately why I decided in the first place on frozen. These will work just fine. After all, we are making a frozen dessert!
At any rate, since I did decided on frozen strawberries. The first thing that I will do is thaw them and then chop them accordingly.
Next, with a hand mixer, mix heavy whipping cream until you get soft peaks. Soft peaks are peaks that form when you lift the beater from the bowl. Soft peaks will flop over almost immediately and not hold their shape well.
Add the sweetened condensed milk to the mixture and continue mixing for 60 seconds.
With a spatula or spoon, make sure to fold in the finely chopped strawberries.
Pour mixture into covered, freezer safe container or containers there you go.
Optional: One thing to note is that can serve this with chocolate syrup and Strawberry flavored candies!
This is the first time I’ve made this recipe. As a matter of fact this is the first time I’ve made homemade ice cream! I know, can you believe it? But, if you’re going to make homemade ice cream, it may as well be strawberry ice cream right?
