Strawberry Soft Serve
Makes about 4 cups
Ingredients
1 3/4 cups whole milk
1/3 cup granulated sugar
2 tablespoons packed light brown sugar
¼ teaspoon fine sea salt
2 cups freeze-dried strawberries*
1 cup heavy cream
½ teaspoon pure vanilla extract
*If freeze-dried strawberries are not available, a simple version of this recipe can be prepared by using store-bought strawberry syrup (in the dessert or ice cream section of the grocery store). To prepare, replace the freeze-dried strawberries with 1/3 cup strawberry syrup and increase the heavy cream by 1/3 cup. Whisk together in a mixing bowl and then follow instructions for preparing the ice cream.
Preparation
1. Put the milk, sugars, and salt into a large mixing bowl. Whisk well to dissolve the sugars. Add the dehydrated strawberries and allow to steep, in the refrigerator, for a minimum of 2 hours and up to overnight.
2. Put the strawberry mixture into a blender jar and run on high until well blended. Add the heavy cream and vanilla and blend on low to just combine.
3. Assemble the 6-in-1 Slushy & Soft-Serve Maker with the star tip placed inside the dispensing assembly. Pour the ice cream base into the ingredient funnel. Select Ice Cream and press Start.
4. When ice cream is ready to dispense, the unit will signal before going into Keep Cool mode.
5. Dispense into cones or cups to serve
