This dreamy scoop is the perfect blend of juicy strawberries and rich, creamy vanilla—made right in your own kitchen! Whether you serve it in cones, bowls, or straight off the spoon, it’s the ultimate homemade treat for warm days or anytime cravings.
📋 Ingredients
● 2 cups fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
● ¾ cup granulated sugar
● 1 cup heavy cream
● 1 cup milk
● 1 tsp vanilla extract
● Pinch of salt
📝 Directions
1️⃣ Macerate the Strawberries
Mash strawberries in a bowl, sprinkle in ¼ cup of the sugar, and let sit for 30 minutes. This draws out the juice and deepens the berry flavor. 🍓✨
2️⃣ Whisk the Ice Cream Base
In a separate bowl, whisk together heavy cream, milk, remaining ½ cup sugar, vanilla, and a pinch of salt until well combined. This base is creamy heaven!
3️⃣ Combine & Mix
Gently stir the macerated strawberries and their syrup into the cream mixture. Little berry chunks? YES please. 😍
4️⃣ Churn Time!
Pour the mixture into your ice cream maker and churn according to your machine's instructions. It’ll start getting thick, creamy, and seriously tempting.
5️⃣ Freeze to Perfection
Scoop the churned ice cream into a lidded container and freeze for at least 4 hours to firm up. Then… scoop, serve, and devour! 🍦💕
🍓 Pro Tip: Want to level it up? Add crushed graham crackers for a strawberry cheesecake vibe or swirl in strawberry jam for a ribbon of extra flavor!
Every scoop is a burst of sweet berry bliss—so simple, so satisfying, so homemade
