Strawberry Vanilla Dream Ice Cream Delight
Ingredients:
– 2 cups fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
– 1 cup heavy cream
– 1 cup whole milk
– 3/4 cup granulated sugar
– 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
– Pinch of salt
– Optional: Fresh mint leaves for garnish
Instructions:
1. In a medium bowl, combine the sliced strawberries and 2 tablespoons of sugar. Toss to coat them well and let them sit for about 10 minutes until they release their juices.
2. In another large bowl, whisk together the heavy cream, whole milk, the remaining sugar (about 1/2 cup), vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt until the mixture is well combined and the sugar is dissolved.
3. Gently fold the macerated strawberries into the cream mixture, ensuring you retain some of the berry chunks for texture.
4. Pour the combined mixture into your ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer’s instructions. This usually takes around 20-25 minutes until it reaches a soft-serve consistency.
5. Transfer the churned ice cream into an airtight container and freeze for at least 4 hours, or until firm.
6. Serve scoops of the strawberry vanilla ice cream in bowls or cones, and if desired, garnish with fresh mint leaves.
