Ingredients

  • 1 ½ cups freeze-dried strawberries
  • 2 cups very cold heavy whipping cream
  • 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • Pinch of fine sea salt
  • 1 14 oz. can sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 ½ cups fresh strawberries finely diced and slightly mashed
  • Red food coloring optional

Instructions

  • Add the freeze-dried strawberries to the bowl of a food processor. Process until the strawberries are a fine powder. Set aside.
  • Add the heavy cream, vanilla extract, pinch of salt, and red food coloring (if using) to a large bowl or bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment.
  • Whip on low speed with an electric hand mixer and whisk attachment or with the stand mixer. Once the cream starts to thicken, slowly increase the speed to medium-high and continue to whip until soft peaks form.
  • Gently fold in the powdered freeze-dried strawberries and sweetened condensed milk. Once incorporated, fold in the fresh strawberries.
  • Transfer to a 2-qt freezer safe container. Freeze for 2 hours then serve.

Notes

  1. For more of a soft-serve texture freeze for 1 hour.
  2. Be sure your strawberries are finely diced, they will freeze solid once the ice cream is hard so large pieces will be harder to eat.
