Make Your Own Ice Cream -- Without a Machine!

By Good Housekeeping | Shine Food – Thu, Jul 11, 2013 11:32 AM EDT

 

Strawberry Ice Cream - Making your own ice cream is easier than you think -- especially when it doesn't require a fancy machine. This delectable four-ingredient treat whips up in 10 minutes flat and freezes into scoopable sweetness in an hour. A serving of labor-intensive, custard-based strawberry ice cream has 282 calories, 12 grams of saturated fat, and 134 times the cholesterol of our luscious dessert, which has a mere 70 calories per serving and less than 1/2 gram of saturated fat. So go ahead: Spoon up some more.

Serves: 7
Yields: 7 (1/2 cup) servings
Total Time: 1 hr 10 min
Prep Time: 10 min




Ingredients:
- 1 pound(s) frozen strawberries
- 1 cup(s) 2% plain Greek yogurt
- 1/4 cup(s) sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon(s) vanilla extract
- Strawberries, for garnish


Directions:
1. In food processor with knife blade attached, pulse 1 cup strawberries until finely chopped. Transfer chopped berries to large metal bowl.

2. In food processor, puree yogurt, sugar, vanilla, and remaining strawberries until smooth. Transfer to bowl with strawberries; stir until well combined.

3. Cover and freeze about 1 hour, until firm but not hard. Garnish with strawberries.

Tips:
You can substitute plain low-fat yogurt for the Greek yogurt. When testing this recipe, we found both worked well, but we preferred Greek yogurt's creamier texture. We also tested this in three different freezers and found that the freezing time varied depending on freezer make and model. Begin checking your ice cream at 1 hour, and continue freezing if you prefer a firmer texture.

Fried Ice Cream Cake

Fried Ice Cream Cake
original recipe by ilovecooking

1/2 cup butter (1 stick)
1 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
3 cups crushed cornflakes
1 1.75-quart container vanilla ice cream (no substitutions – it has to be real ice cream)
1 8-ounce carton frozen whipped topping, thawed
3/4 teaspoon cinnamon
Honey for drizzling

Set ice cream out to soften up at room temperature for about 30 minutes. Or longer if your freezer is set on 'Cryogenic Clone Storage'. You want to be able to slide a butter knife into it without too much resistance.

Meanwhile, melt butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat then add sugar and salt. Stir and continue cooking until the sugar is thoroughly incorporated into the butter and the mixture starts to bubble (about 2-3 minutes). Add cornflakes and continue cooking, constantly stirring, for 5-6 minutes or until the cornflakes are slightly caramelized and browned. Be careful not to cook too long or the sugar will burn.

Add a little more than half of the cornflakes to the bottom of a 13x9 baking dish (more than 1/2 but not quite 2/3). Using your hand, pat the cornflakes into a level crust in the bottom of the dish. Let crust cool to room temperature.

In a stand mixer using the paddle attachment or large bowl using big ole spoon, mix ice cream, whipped topping and cinnamon just until thoroughly combined.

Spread ice cream mixture evenly over cornflake layer. Sprinkle top of ice cream evenly with remaining cornflakes. Cover and return to freezer. Freeze “cake” for 4 hours before serving.

I was able to serve and enjoy this straight out of the freezer. The ice cream layer was soft and fluffy but, again, if your freezer is set on some subarctic dinosaur preserving setting, you may want to let this set in the fridge for an hour or so to soften up before serving.

Drizzle each portion with honey before serving.
