Fantastical Food Fight has done it again, a food fight worthy of returning to my blog.
I’m laughing a little bit because my uncle teased me for blogging so much after declaring I was taking a break. (Thanks for being a true fan, Uncle Lar!)
The kids and I spent the end of June at Lake Geneva with my parents while my husband was doing a two week stint at the Pentagon. While on our trip, we went strawberry picking in Bristol. A lot of strawberries! We used those strawberries to make pie, sorbet, and no-churn ice cream.
Because I was at my mom’s house, sans ice cream maker, I had to go with a no-churn method for ice cream making. Luckily this food fight allows no-churn varieties of ice cream!
No-Churn Strawberry Ice Cream
Ingredients:
- 1 qt frozen strawberries
- 1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 pt heavy cream
Steps:
- Place a metal pan in the freezer to chill (we used a bundt pan!).
- Thaw strawberries 10-20 minutes.
- Place strawberries in a food processor and pulse until pea-sized. Add the condensed milk, vanilla, and a pinch of salt. Pulse until combined.
- Using a hand mixer, beat the heavy cream until stiff peaks are formed.
- Fold 1 C of the whipped cream into the ice cream base then pour that into the remaining whipped cream until blended.
- Pour into the chilled pan and freeze 2-5 hours.

I, for one, have been happy that you didn’t just leave us all completely. I always look forward to your posts and your recipes.
Thank you, Wendy. Xoxo
Look at that pretty color! I have two packs of frozen strawberries and I am so tempted to go ahead and make some, but since the girls aren’t around, I better control my temptations… 🙂
Looks amazing! I bet it tastes just as great!
So happy to be cooking with you again!! This looks like one decadent strawberry ice cream! Perfect choice!
Perfect for summer — I eat strawberries every chance I get when they are in season 🙂
Such a beautiful colour this ice cream has. Looks so delicious!!1
I hate the commercial strawberry flavoured ice creams but fresh home made ones are really delicious. Beautiful colour and am tempted to try out your recipe soon.
Love it! And I’m always a fan of no churn!
Lauren! I can only dream about “picking strawberries” 🙂 The no-churn ice cream looks fabulous and what a lovely colour! Glad to have come across your blog through the event!
Thank you so much for your kind words. I’m working on another post for the picked strawberries which will include photos of the event, so I hope you’ll be back soon to check it out!
It looks wonderful! I love the use of sweetened condensed milk.
