Ingredients
12 servings
- •1 pint fresh strawberries, hulled and roughly chopped
- •1 cup white sugar, divided
- •2 lemons, juiced (Optional)
- •1 lemon, zested (Optional)
- •1 cup milk
- •2 cups heavy cream
- •1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Combine strawberries, 1/3 cup sugar, lemon juice, and lemon zest in a bowl; stir gently. Cover and store in the refrigerator for about 2 hours.
- Meanwhile, mix milk and remaining sugar in a bowl with an electric mixer on low speed until sugar dissolves, about 2 minutes. Stir in heavy cream, vanilla extract, and some juice from the strawberries, but not the berries themselves.
- Add the mixture to an ice cream maker and churn according to manufacturer's instructions, about 20 minutes.
- About 10 minutes before the ice cream is finished, puree most of the strawberries in a food processor or blender; reserve a few berries to slice for a garnish. Add the strawberries to the ice cream maker for the last 5 minutes of churning. Transfer to an airtight container and freeze until firm, about 4 hours.
