Anybody remember the Good Humor Strawberry Shortcake bars? These No Churn Strawberry Ice Cream Bars are like the grownup version of that sweet treat!
Spring is here and Summer will be here before we know it. I know it's early, but I'm already trying to be ready with a plan so I don't go overboard with preservative packed store bought ice cream and snow cones just because they're easy and I'm hot!
I love that this has only a few simple ingredients. Only 6 in fact: decadent heavy whipping cream, fresh ripe strawberries, crispy graham crackers, sweetened condensed milk, tangy vanilla extract, and oh yum, melted butter makes everything better!
You're going to puree most of the strawberries. I like to use my food processor, but you can use your blender if you haven't invested in one yet. You'll dice up what you have left to use as your topping. Next, Combine your pureed strawberries with the whipped cream, vanilla, and sweetened condensed milk. Pour into your graham cracker and butter crust. Then cool until frozen. Preferably overnight, but if you can't wait it'll take about 3 hours. Serve and Enjoy!
