This homemade ice cream makes a refreshing summer treat. The recipe doesn't require an ice cream machine, so anybody can do this on the stovetop. Freezes overnight and makes 1 gallon. Cook time does not include freezing time.

Ingredients
  • 1 cup cold milk
  • 2 cups sugar
  • 1/2 cup cornstarch
  • 1/4 tsp. salt
  • 1 quart whole milk
  • 4 egg yolks
  • 2 tbsp. milk
  • 1 package unflavored gelatine
  • 3 tsp. cold milk
  • 1 quart heavy cream
  • 2 tsp. vanilla extract
  • 4 egg whites, well-beaten to stiff peaks
  • 1 1/2 cups crushed fresh strawberries

Directions
  1. Blend sugar, cornstarch and salt together. Stir in 1 cup of cold milk. Set aside.
  2. Bring 1 quart of whole milk almost to a boil, then add the sugar/cornstarch mixture to it. Cook this mixture on medium-low heat until thick, whisking constantly.
  3. Whisk the egg yolks with 2 tbsp. of milk, then add them to the milk mixture. Cook for 1 more minute.
  4. Soak the gelatin in 3 tsp. of cold milk for a few minutes, then add it to the milk mixture.
  5. Remove the custard from stove and let it cool. When cooled, add heavy cream, vanilla, and well-beaten egg whites to the custard.
  6. Stir in the crushed (or finely chopped) strawberries. If you don't like the fruit in your ice cream, omit this step.
  7. Note: I like to use empty large yogurt containers to put the ice cream in before freezing, but any other plastic container will do.
  8. Freeze the ice cream ovenight. If you keep your freezer at the max cool temperature like I do, let the ice cream sit out for about 10 minutes before serving, or use a scooper dipped in hot water.

What a cool recipe!!! No pun intended! So if we leave out the fruit, then its just vanilla ice cream? How do we make chocolate flavored? Can we add cocoa powder?


Cool recipe, and I do have an ice cream maker machine.

What is neat is you are combining 3 types of ice cream into one - plain, custard and gelatin and of course there is the flour as a thickener.

Too bad they won't let me give it more than a 5... this one is way over the top - like a 10!

And Happy Mothers Day.


Very, very yummy Juels....I thank you for this. lol susie


Hey Juels, Hope everything is cool in your world. This is a great recipe, I gotta get on this! Have a Great Mother's Day! Thanks, Dooley


Hey Juels! Wonderful sounding ice cream, here. I love that I don't have to have an ice cream machine to make it, too! Mine broke over a year ago and I've just not replaced it. Woohoo, this is on the list!--Kn0x--


Strawberry season will be here in a few weeks... great post... ^5


Yes, Lillian, if you skip the fruit, it would just be a vanila ice cream. To make it chocolate, mix 1/2 cup of cocoa with a little boiling water, and add it to the above recipe before freezing it. I should have mentioned that in the recipe.


Wonderful and love strqawberry ice cream ahigh5 plus. thanks


Now this is a GREAT recipe-especially cuz I don't have ice cream maker capabilities! Thanks for the share (and the chocolate info too!)


I am loving this. I am ALL about homemade strawberry ice cream, my friend. Delish!


This sounds delicious, Julia, and I can't wait to try it!
Homemade ice cream is sooooooooo good! :+D


Finally, an ice cream recipe I can make without the ice cream maker!! This sounds way beyond good, and I can't wait to try it...need to save up some yogurt containers (great idea!) - thanks, Juels!
