Ingredients for Berrylicious Ice Cream

  • 2 cups whole milk
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup half-and-half
  • Vanilla Extract
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • Raspberries

How to Make Berrylicious Ice Cream

  1. In a saucepan, scald 2 cups of milk over medium heat until bubbles form around the edges (about 5 minutes).
  2. Remove from heat and stir in 3/4 cup granulated sugar and 1/4 teaspoon salt until completely dissolved.
  3. Stir in 1 cup heavy cream, 1/2 cup half-and-half, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  4. Cover and refrigerate the mixture for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
  5. Gently fold in 2 cups of your favorite berries (fresh or frozen). If using frozen berries, let them thaw slightly before adding.
  6. Pour the ice cream mixture into your ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions. This usually takes 20-30 minutes.
  7. Once churned, transfer the ice cream to an airtight container and freeze for at least 2-3 hours to allow it to harden further.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Elevate your dish with simple flavor boosters! A final flourish of freshly chopped herbs can add incredible brightness, while a squeeze of lemon or lime juice right before serving can awaken all the flavors. Don't underestimate a sprinkle of quality finishing salt or a drizzle of good olive oil to make your creation shine.
