Strawberry Sensation Ice Cream

Strawberry Sensation Ice Cream

Ingredients:

2 cups fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced

1/2 cup granulated sugar

1 cup heavy cream

1 cup whole milk

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 tablespoon lemon juice

Instructions:

Prepare the Strawberry Mixture:

In a bowl, combine sliced strawberries with granulated sugar. Let sit for about 15 minutes, until the strawberries release their juices.

Blend the Strawberries:

Using a blender or food processor, puree the strawberries until smooth. If you prefer a chunkier texture, pulse a few times to leave some pieces.

Mix the Base:

In a separate bowl, whisk together heavy cream, whole milk, vanilla extract, and lemon juice until well combined.

Combine and Chill:

Stir the strawberry puree into the cream mixture until evenly blended. Refrigerate the mixture for at least 2 hours, or until thoroughly chilled.

Churn the Ice Cream:

Pour the chilled mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer’s instructions, usually for about 20-25 minutes.

Freeze and Serve:

Transfer the churned ice cream to a lidded container and freeze for at least 2 hours to firm up. Scoop and enjoy!
