Cuisinart Ice Cream maker Strawberry Ice Cream


This is a new device I picked up before Christmas, now is the time to put it to use. Lovely result.












Ingredients:
Strawberries
2 pun nets fresh strawberries
4 tbsp lemon juice
1/2 cup sugar
Ice Cream Base
1 cup milk
2/3 cup granulated sugar
2 cups heavy cream
1 tsp vanilla extract
Directions:
Strawberries
Wash, stem, and slice strawberries.
Combine strawberries, lemon juice, and 1/3 cup sugar in a small airtight container.
Place strawberry mixture in the fridge for at least 2 hours. Leaving the strawberries, in the fridge longer will enhance the flavor.

Ice Cream Base
Mix milk and sugar, allowing the sugar to dissolve (mix about 1 -2 minutes with a hand mixer or whisk).
Drain strawberries, adding juice to milk mixture. Set strawberries aside.
Stir in heavy cream and vanilla.
Pour mixture into your ice cream maker.
Mix about 20-25 minutes.
Add about half the strawberries to ice cream mixture
Mix 5 minutes more in your ice cream maker.

Allow to set firmly in freezer.
