Magic Strawberry Ice Cream

"No ice cream machine? No problem not necessary for this recipe. From Cook's Country-Aug. 2011. I made yesterday and it is delicious, but next time I will increase the strawberries from 1 1/2 cups to 2 cups so changed it here. I also wonder what would happen if you left a few berries chunky? The texture is good and color is a nice pink. The vodka idea is intriguing--"to prevent the strawberry solids from icing up" is what the article says-and it works! If you plan to store the ice cream for more than a few days, place plastic wrap directly on its surface. Mine froze very hard so next time, I am going to set it in the fridge for 30 minutes before serving to see if it softens a bit. Raspberries might be good too?"

  1. I've made a bunch of different strawberry ice cream recipes and the strawberries end up making them icy. This recipe works like a charm and there's so little vodka I don't mind serving it to my toddler. It tastes just like real ice cream with the same texture. Sometimes I put it into Popsicle molds for a new treat. It's nice to not have to cook up a custard on hot summer days and you don't need an ice cream mixer. Best strawberry recipe ever!
     
  2. Made this for my son, DIL & myself since my other half is in AA (so bought a small container of Ben & Jerry's Phish Food to keep the peace)! Anyway, your ice cream is wonderfully tasty, & we had no trouble at all eating most of it at one sitting! Very, very nice! Thanks for sharing it!
