Strawberry Buttermilk Ice Cream

Craving desert, but with no eggs or milk and not enough strawberries to make a sorbet, I thought I might just have to be healthy tonight… Then I spotted a carton of buttermilk! I’ve also been meaning to try using sweetened condensed milk in an ice cream to make it extra creamy, so this seemed like the perfect opportunity.

It didn’t quite turn out how I thought it would taste, but that’s not necessarily a bad thing. Some interaction between the sweetened condensed milk and the buttermilk makes this strawberry buttermilk ice cream a dead ringer for strawberry cheesecake. I might even try adding some graham crackers next time:-)

2 C buttermilk
1/2 C sweetened condensed milk
1 Tbs sugar
1/2 C strawberries diced

2 Tbs sweetened condensed milk

Whisk the first 4 ingredients together and chill in the fridge for 30 minutes.

Dump it into an ice cream maker following the manufactures directions.

When the ice cream is done, swirl in 2 Tbs sweetened condensed milk. Serve soft or throw it in the freezer for 30 minutes to set up more like store bought ice cream.

    Buttermilk is a great idea. I put cream cheese in some eggless ice creams I’ve made and the texture comes out as if there were eggs. Plus the flavor of ice cream and cheese cake is awesome. I bet the strawberries were the perfect touch. Yum!

    Ok I tried this last night and it was AMAZING! Both my husband and I were shocked at how great this tasted considering the lack of cream and eggs. I will keep this one in my ice cream recipe file for summertime.
