Strawberry Sensation Ice Cream 

1. Prepare the Strawberry Mixture:

In a bowl, combine the sliced strawberries, ½ cup sugar, and lemon juice.

Let the mixture sit for 30 minutes to allow the strawberries to release their juices and dissolve the sugar.

2. Make the Ice Cream Base:

In another bowl, whisk together the heavy cream, whole milk, ¾ cup sugar, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt until the sugar is fully dissolved.

3. Combine the Mixtures:

Add the strawberry mixture to the ice cream base and mix well until combined.

4. Chill and Freeze:

Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 2 hours to chill thoroughly.

5. Churn the Ice Cream:

Pour the chilled mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer’s instructions, usually for 25-30 minutes.

6. Freeze Again:

Transfer the churned ice cream to a freezer-safe container and freeze for at least 4 hours to firm up.

7. Serve and Enjoy:

Scoop the homemade strawberry ice cream into bowls or cones and enjoy the fresh strawberry flavor in every creamy bite!
