Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups fresh strawberries
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • 1 tsp pure vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Strawberries: Wash, hull, and slice the strawberries. Combine with sugar in a bowl and let sit for about 10 minutes to release juices.
  2. Blend: Transfer strawberries to a blender and blend until smooth, leaving some chunks if desired.
  3. Mix the Cream: In a separate bowl, whisk heavy cream, whole milk, and vanilla extract until combined.
  4. Combine: Fold the strawberry puree into the cream mixture; taste and adjust sweetness if necessary.
  5. Chill: Cover and refrigerate the mixture for at least 2 hours to enhance flavors.
  6. Churn: Pour into an ice cream maker and churn according to instructions (20-30 minutes). For no-churn, freeze in an airtight container while stirring every hour.
