Strawberry Shortbread Ice Cream

Strawberry Shortbread Ice Cream – Creamy, luscious no-churn ice cream, swirled with strawberry sauce and strawberry pieces, then sprinkled with crumbled up shortbread biscuits.

I love it when something easy-to-make tastes out of this world.

Making multi-step cakes and desserts can be fun, but tucking into a bowl of something that tastes this good – after only 10 minutes of prep and a spell in the freezer – well, it almost feels like you’ve been let into a secret.

The best secret!

and now that the kid are off school, I need some quick recipes!

This time last year I had just finished my job in the IT world.  I can’t believe a year has gone by already! During that time I’ve been working hard on the blog, my photography (check out one of the photos from this time last year – hopefully the improvement is apparent), and I’ve also started writing recipes for other people too.

I’m not making a full-time income yet, but I’m getting there, and I’m thankful every day that i’m able to do a job that I love!

…and that’s all down to you guys for coming to check out my recipes.  Thank you so much x

Looking back at last year, I was just about able to juggle writing a few recipes a week for my blog whilst keeping the kids entertained for the holidays.

This time round I’m about 2 or 3 times as busy.  I’m not quite sure how I’m going to fit it all in whilst spending time with the kids, going for days out and taking a few little holidays, but I’ll manage.

A few ideas I have in mind include:

• Plenty of quick & easy recipes
• Recipes aimed at children
• Recipes made with the children’s help (they’ve already asked to make homemade jelly worms…..)

You’ll see I’ve used the strawberry sauce I shared on Wednesday to make this ice cream.  That meant I had this ice cream mixed and ready to go in the freezer in 10 minutes.

I haven’t actually shared any with the kids yet (Chris and I sat on the sofa scoffing it after getting the kids into bed) but I’ll try to save them some.

Or maybe I’ll just have to make some more!!

• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 600 ml heavy/whipping cream

Instructions

• Pour the condensed milk, vanilla extract and cream into a large bowl or food mixer. Whisk using the balloon attachment or hand whisk until thick (the mix should hold it’s shape when you lift the whisk).
• Gently stir in the chopped strawberries.
• Take a loaf tin/pie tin or similar freezable container and spoon 1/2 of the cream mixture into it. Drizzle on 1/2 of the strawberry sauce, then repeat with the remaining and cream and sauce.
• Swirl the mixture with the back of a knife – just enough to create a few swirls.
• Sprinkle on the crumbled shortbread and place the ice cream in the freezer for at least 3-4 hours (cover with a lid or plastic wrap if freezing for longer).
• Take the ice cream out of the freezer about 15 minutes before you want to eat it – to allow it to soften.
