homemade strawberry ice cream!!

ingredients
1 1/2 cups strawberries, hulled and diced
2 tb honey
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 tsp lemon juice
1 cup heavy whipping cream
1/2 cup half and half
1 tsp vanilla extract

directions

in a large bowl, mix strawberries, honey, sugar, and lemon juice. let it sit for 20 minutes, or until the strawberries have released their juices.

mash the mixture with a potato masher or fork until there are no longer any large strawberry pieces (if you prefer a smooth ice cream, use a blender or food processor instead*).

add heavy cream, half and half, and vanilla extract to the strawberry mixture. stir just until combined.

pour the mixture into your ice cream maker, and follow your manufacturer’s instructions (mine took about 15-20 minutes to churn). you can eat the ice cream soft-serve, or freeze it in an airtight container for 3-4 hours to thicken it up slightly.

didn’t know what to expect but the ice cream was sooo creamy and delicious. so excited to make a million more flavors!
