How To Make Strawberry Rolled Ice Cream

Prep time: 10 minutes ~~~~~~ Servings: 4

Ingredients

For the ice cream base:
• 2 cups cold heavy cream
• 1 (14-ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
• 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt

To make it strawberry flavored:
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1/2 cup strawberry preserves, plus sliced fresh strawberries for garnish

Equipment

• Measuring cups and spoons
• Medium bowl
• Whisk
• Flat metal spatula
• 2 rimmed baking sheets, or 2 (9x13-inch) metal baking pans

Instructions

1. Prep the freezer. Before you begin, make sure that you have flat surfaces in your freezer for 2 rimmed baking sheets or 2 (9x13-inch) metal baking pans. You want to use metal, not glass or ceramic, or the ice cream won’t freeze quickly.


2. Make the ice cream base. Whisk the cream, sweetened condensed milk, and salt together in a medium bowl.


3. Pour the ice cream base into the baking sheets or pans. Divide the ice cream base between the baking sheets or pans.


4. Add the flavors or customize the base. Divide the strawberry preserves between the pans and whisk or stir gently to combine.


5. Freeze the ice cream base for 2 hours. Freeze until completely frozen, about 2 hours.


6. Roll the ice cream. Roll 1 pan of ice cream at a time (keep the other one in the freezer). Position the pan with a long side closer to you. Working quickly from top to bottom, use a flat, sharp edged spatula to cut the ice cream into 3-inch wide strips. Starting at the bottom, use the spatula to scrape up and roll the ice cream strips into rolls. Using tongs, gently pick up the rolled ice cream and stand them up in a cup or small ramekin.


7. Garnish and serve. Top the rolled ice cream with whipped cream, sprinkles, crushed cookies, or sliced berries, as desired. Enjoy!
