Ingredients

Servings
  • 1 ½ cups fresh strawberries diced and chilled
  • 1 cup sugar plus 2 TB extra
  • 1 cup whole milk

Instructions

  1. Mix diced strawberries with 2 TB sugar to macerate. Chill in fridge while you proceed with the recipe (can macerate up to 1 hour).

Notes

  • If you enjoyed this recipe, please come back and give it a rating. We ❤️ hearing from you! 
  • Join our Free Recipe Club and get our newest, best recipes each week!
  • Measure ingredients carefully; if even slightly over-measured, it can create overflow in ice cream machine. 
  • We highly recommend ripe, fresh strawberries. However, if you prefer to use frozen strawberries: place them in a blender or food processor to pulse a few times just until roughly chopped. Use them frozen; do not thaw nor macerate them. 
  • Note that frozen strawberries tend to be less sweet than fresh ripe ones. 
  • You can also use a mixture of berries: blueberries, blackberries, and raspberries are all great. 
  • Do-Ahead: cream, sugar, milk, and vanilla mixture can be whisked together the day before, covered, and chilled. Mix again just prior to using. 
  • I used natural food coloring made from juice for a pretty pink hue. Otherwise, the ice cream will remain more of a vanilla color, but tastes the same. 
  • Serve with a generous drizzle of Hot Fudge Sauce for a homemade sundae.
