Homemade Strawberry Ice Cream Recipe
Ingredients:
1 pound fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
3/4 cup water
1/2 cup granulated sugar
4 cups heavy cream
2 cans (790 grams) sweetened condensed milk
A few drops of pink food coloring (optional)
A handful of dark chocolate pieces (optional)
Toppings of your choice (e.g., Ferrero Rocher chocolates, rolled wafer sticks, double dark chocolate cookies)
Instructions:
Prepare the Strawberry Mixture:
In a pot over medium heat, combine 3/4 cup water and 1/2 cup granulated sugar. Stir until the sugar is dissolved and the mixture reaches a boil.
Add the sliced strawberries to the pot and stir occasionally. Cook until the strawberries soften but still have some chunks, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from heat and let it cool.
Whip the Cream:
In a large bowl, pour 4 cups of heavy cream. Using a whisk or electric mixer, beat the cream until it thickens and reaches a stiff peak consistency.
Combine Ingredients:
Gently fold the two cans of sweetened condensed milk into the whipped cream until well incorporated.
Add the cooled strawberry mixture to the cream mixture. Stir gently to combine, keeping some strawberry chunks for texture.
If using, add a few drops of pink food coloring to enhance the color.
Fold in the dark chocolate pieces for added richness.
Freeze the Ice Cream:
Transfer the mixture into a freezer-safe container. Smooth the top with a spatula.
Cover with plastic wrap, ensuring it touches the surface of the ice cream to prevent ice crystals from forming.
Freeze for at least 5 hours or until fully set.
Serve:
Scoop the ice cream into bowls or cones.
Garnish with your favorite toppings like Ferrero Rocher chocolates, rolled wafer sticks, double dark chocolate cookies, or fresh fruits.
