Strawberry Ice Cream

This is a simple recipe for strawberry ice cream.  I like to use fresh strawberries but frozen will also work well.  This recipe requires no cooking and just a little mixing.  That means you'll have more time to relax and wait for the sweet results.

Ingredients
1½ cups fresh strawberries
¾ cup whole milk
⅔ cup granulated sugar
pinch salt
1½ cups heavy cream
1½ tsp. vanilla extract

Directions
Place the strawberries into the bowl of a food processor and pulse strawberries until rough chopped. Set aside.

In a medium bowl, use a hand mixer on low speed to combine the milk, sugar and salt until the sugar is dissolved. Stir in the heavy cream and vanilla. Add the reserved strawberries with all juices and stir to combine. Cover and refrigerate several hours or overnight.

Churn in an ice cream machine according to manufacturer’s directions. Serve immediately, or place in freezer for an hour or two for a firmer texture.
