You can make this rich and creamy strawberry ice cream with just three basic ingredients and no ice cream maker. This recipe uses fresh strawberries for real flavor.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
  • 2 cups heavy whipping cream, cold
  • 1 pound fresh strawberries, hulled and pureed

Instructions

  1. Prepare your strawberries: Hull and puree the fresh strawberries in a blender until smooth. Measure out 1 cup of the puree.
  2. In a large bowl, whip the cold heavy whipping cream using an electric mixer until stiff peaks form. This takes about 3 to 5 minutes.
  3. Gently fold the entire can of sweetened condensed milk into the whipped cream until just combined. Do not overmix.
  4. Fold in the 1 cup of strawberry puree until the mixture is uniformly pink and streaked with strawberry flavor.
  5. Pour the mixture into a freezer-safe loaf pan or container. Cover the surface directly with plastic wrap to prevent ice crystals.
  6. Freeze for at least 6 hours, or until firm. You do not need to churn this ice cream.
  7. When ready to serve, let the ice cream sit on the counter for 5 to 10 minutes to soften slightly before scooping.

Notes

  • For the best texture, make sure your heavy cream is very cold before whipping.
  • If you prefer a stronger strawberry flavor, you can increase the puree slightly, but be aware this may affect the final firmness.
  • This recipe is egg-free and requires no cooking.
