No Churn Strawberries ‘n Cream
The best thing about this recipe is that you don’t need a fancy ice cream maker to pull it off! The second best thing is that you can make this recipe with just a few simple ingredients. The hardest part about this recipe is waiting for the pops to freeze!
Macerated strawberries and ever so slightly whipped heavy cream make for the tastiest combo. These pops eat more like ice cream on a stick than a traditional fruit based popsicle. They are creamy, not icy. They remind me a lot of paletas, the traditional Mexican frozen treats made from fresh ingredients.
BMW is my trusty taste tester and since strawberry is his favorite ice cream flavor, I knew he would be a tough audience. I was thrilled when I caught him sneaking his second one of these pops! He usually likes the recipes I make but going back for seconds later the same day means he really likes it and that’s all the approval I needed!
I love these old school popsicle molds! I like the traditional shape not to mention they work great and are easy to clean.
