After finding the peach ice cream recipe in my Great-Grandmother’s 1913 cookbook and finding it so simple yet delicious, I wanted to try some different variations. This luscious strawberry cream ice cream was the result of my experimenting. I love that no special equipment is needed and it is so fast to make. Strawberries are one of my favorite fruits. I can add them to just about anything and know I will like it. Since I often have cream from my sister’s dairy I was bound to try this combination eventually. The burst of fresh strawberry flavor in each bite with this smooth ice cream is just amazing.
STrawberry Ice Cream Steps:
1. Wash and remove stems from the strawberries with a strawberry huller or a paring knife.
Mash/chop 4 cups of strawberries into small chunks with a masher.
Mix with 1 cup of sugar.
Pour 3 cups of cream and 1 teaspoon of vanilla over the fruit mixture.
Mix together well and place in a large lidded container. Place in the freezer for about 12 hours.
I find it is easier to scoop if I take it out of the freezer 10 minutes before I want to serve it.
This is less fluffy than a lot of our ice cream is now but still delicious and so easy to make.
