Make homemade Strawberry Ice Cream at home for a delicious cool summer treat!
What better way to use up all last seasons strawberries than to make a batch of homemade Strawberry Ice Cream! I mean, who doesn’t love homemade ice cream?? And then serve it in store bought waffle cones dipped in crushed Oreo cookies. Can you say yum?! Let me tell you how the kids went absolutely crazy over this yummy treat! Now that I have access to some of the freshest milk available, I knew I had to try my hand at some new ice cream flavors. And with strawberry season quickly approaching, there’s literally no better time!
Now, onto the ice cream process. It’s as simple as making a strawberry puree. Just cook some strawberries in a small saucepan and push them through a food mill. If you don’t have one of these little kitchen gadgets, you’re gonna want to get one. You can make homemade marinara and apple sauce with this baby. Because it pushes the fruit juices through and holds back the pulp and seeds. You’ll mix the fruit puree with the cream mixture, let it chill and process in an ice cream maker. Then, let it freeze for a few hours or overnight. That’s it and within a few hours you’ll have the most creamy and delicious homemade ice cream you’ve ever tasted!
Want the ice cream to taste even better? All I did was pick up some store bought waffle cones, dip them in melted chocolate chips and gently roll into crushed Oreo cookies. That was super easy, right? And it adds a little extra something to your already delicious homemade ice cream. You’ll be the hit of the backyard party with this yummy treat!
