Thanks to a combination of luck, good weather and my limited gardening skills, I have been getting a glut of fresh strawberries this Spring. So as a lover of ice cream and easy recipes, it is a perfect opportunity to make this dessert. But don’t worry, you do not have to have green fingers or a garden, this recipe works just as well with store-bought strawberries.
This recipe is based on the easiest ice cream recipe I have ever tried to make. In the video at about halfway, I even give you the option of making this as a vanilla ice cream, which tastes awesome by the way. So please, watch the video and give this a go, then tell me what you think.
Also, this is my first attempt at using the “WP Recipe Maker” plug-in. Do you like it? does it make it easier to read? Please let me know your thoughts, thanks.
