Ingredients
Below are notes on some of the ingredients for this homemade strawberry ice cream.
- Heavy cream: Use cold, full fat heavy cream.
- Sweetened condensed milk: You’ll need one can of sweetened condensed milk.
- Strawberries: Roasting the strawberries intensifies the strawberry flavor and sweetness.
Substitutions & Variations
- Feel free to switch it up and replace half of the strawberries with raspberries or blueberries.
- For some texture, stir in some crushed graham crackers or Biscoff cookies!
Instructions
Step One: Roast the strawberries. Sprinkle strawberries with sugar and roast them for 30 minutes, stirring halfway. Cool then lightly mash strawberries and their liquid.
Hint! Do not discard the juice the strawberries have given off. It will add flavor to the ice cream!
Step Two: Combine the cooled strawberries and the sweetened condensed milk.
Step Three: Whip the heavy whipping cream. Whip on high speed until medium peaks form.
Step Four: Fold a cup of the whipped cream into the condensed milk and berry mixture. Next, fold the condensed milk mixture into the bowl of whipped cream until combined.
Step Five: Pour the mixture into a prepared pan and freeze for 4-6 hours.
Expert Tips
Tip #1: Hull your strawberries. Hull means to remove the tops. I also recommend removing the middle white parts since they don’t add color or flavor.
Tip #2: Make sure your heavy cream is cold when you go to whip it. I even like to put my mixer bowl and beaters in the fridge or freezer for about 20 minutes prior to using it. It’s not necessary but it helps since cold cream whips better.

The instructions say something about stir together cooled strawberries with raspberries, how many raspberries are we supposed to add?
Natalie
So sorry about that. I will update the recipe now. The recipe originally included raspberries but I’ve since made it only strawberries. Please disregard the instructions that mention raspberries. Apologies again for the confusion!
