Ingredients

  • 2 cups chopped strawberries
  • 1 cup sugar divided ½ + ½
  • 2 cups heavy cream
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ⅛ teaspoon salt

Instructions

Make the ice cream base

  • Mix chopped strawberries with ½ cup sugar in a medium sized bowl. Allow to set for about 15 minutes so strawberries release their juices.
  • Blend strawberries up in a blender or food processor.
  • In a large bowl combine strawberry mixture with heavy cream, whole milk, vanilla extract, salt and remaining sugar.
  • For best results, cover and refrigerate 1 to 2 hours, or overnight.

Churn & freeze

  • Turn on the Cuisinart® ice cream maker; pour the mixture into the frozen freezer bowl and let mix until thickened, about 15 to 20 minutes. The ice cream will have a soft, creamy texture.
  • If a firmer consistency is desired, transfer the ice cream to an airtight container and place in freezer for about 2 hours.
  • Remove from freezer about 15 minutes before serving.
