Strawberry Ice Cream Fit for a Queen

Her Majesty (Moi!) loves this!!
In honor of The Queen's Diamond Jubilee, I've made old fashioned strawberry ice cream to go with my friend, Pat's, from pattycakescooking.blogspot.com/,   chocolate biscuit cake, found here.  I think the queen will love this combination, don't you?  I know the Queen and King of this household sure do!!!  If you love STRAWBERRIES as much as I do, be sure to try this creamy, smooth , fabulous ice cream this Summer!!

Recipe is from The Donvier Ice Cream and Dessert Book    

1 cup milk
1 cup sugar
2 eggs
2 cups whole strawberries, fresh, or frozen and thawed
1 1/2 cups whipping cream
1 t. vanilla

In a saucepan over medium heat, heat milk until hot.  In a small mixing bowl whisk together sugar and edds.  Whisking constantly, gradually add hot milk to egg.  Return mixture to saucepan over medium heat.  Stirring constantly, cook until slightly thickened, about 5-8 minutes.  Cool.  (I put this saucepan into a bowl of ice water to cool quickly).

In a blender or food processor, puree fruit with cream.  Stir into cooled custard.  Add vanilla  Chill thoroughly.  Follow directions for your ice cream maker. 

Makes about 1 quart.

  5. I absolutely LOVE strawberry ice cream!

    My husband is the one who makes ice cream in this family - but he hates it - so that leaves a lot of ice cream for me to eat........and you know it's been forever and a day since he's made some.

    I think it is time and you just majorally inspired me to ask him to use your recipe, thanks Kitty!!! YUM!!!

  12. There is nothing better than homemade strawberry ice cream. Local berries are in but they need another week to sweeten up. Can't wait to try this, Kitty. Thanks for sharing.

  21. Yum! This looks so yummy I wish I had an ice cream maker. Instead, I'll just have to drool at your pictures and enjoy the store bought strawberry ice cream that's in my freezer right now. I know it's not as good as your homemade version is. I'm sure many others will enjoy making it, so thanks for sharing your recipes at Your Cozy Home Party each week.
