Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Fresh strawberries
- 0.75 cup Granulated sugar
- 2 cups Heavy whipping cream
- 1 cup Sweetened condensed milk
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
Instructions
Rinse and hull the fresh strawberries, then slice them into halves or quarters.
Place the strawberries and granulated sugar into a blender or food processor. Blend until smooth. If you prefer, you can strain the mixture through a fine mesh sieve to remove seeds.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the strawberry puree with the sweetened condensed milk, heavy whipping cream, vanilla extract, and lemon juice. Stir until well mixed and smooth.
Pour the mixture into a freezer-safe container with a tight-fitting lid. Alternatively, use a loaf pan and cover it tightly with plastic wrap or aluminum foil.
Place the container in the freezer and let it chill for at least 4–6 hours, or until firm. For best results, stir the mixture every 2 hours for the first 4 hours to help break up ice crystals.
Once the ice cream is frozen and scoopable, serve in bowls or cones. Store leftovers in the freezer.
