also works great with yogurt!
Step 1: Ingredients
Tools:
Ingredients:
- 1 package frozen fruit (I used raspberries)
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 2/3 cup heavy cream
- 1 tsp vanilla
Step 2: Make Ice Cream!!!!
Combine the frozen berries, sugar, cream and vanilla in a food processor or blender. Process until the fruit is roughly chopped and mixture resembles ice cream.
Step 3: Eat!
Your ice cream is ready to enjoy!
Eat now if you can't wait, or freeze for firmer texture.
Should there be any leftovers (ha!), they can be frozen for up to a week.
I can't wait to try this with chocolate syrup incorporated!

I tried it today with fresh kiwis. What can I say? I could not keep myself from eating it and, unfortunately I eaten it all today alone!!! Thank you for this idea and recipe!!!
Tweaking: I love strawberry best, so I let the berries thaw just enough to chop by hand, then refreeze them so they don't end up in big chunks. I do a whole (big Costco) bag ahead of time because I know I'll use them and can deep freeze them this way.
I also first wondered "size of bag of berries," then found it doesn't really matter. I have a junior sized food processor, so throw in a couple handfuls of berries, and the sugar, then just add a stream of cream while it's whizzing until it suddenly thickens. Versatile.
But wait! Last night, I made it with nice, thick, non-fat Greek yogurt (which I made in my crockpot, another story), This time, frozen peach bits, strawberries and a large splash of vanilla.
Don't know that it's any better than with cream, but I could eat a huge bowl of it for the same calories.
great recipe scoochmaroo!!!
simple and easy!!
im just gonna try it!!
<3 <3 thnkx a lot!!

We are poor broke students and thus have no cash moneys. We don't have a blender or a food processor. Here was what we did:
We used raspberries because that's what boyfriend wanted. I laid out all of our raspberries on our cutting board, took our largest kitchen knife, and chopped the crap out of them. I cut them longways, sideways, and both diagonals. I kept chopping until they were a fine mush. I set out our cream and sugar, put those in the bowl, and whisked them on a cool surface until they all thickened a little, and then threw it in the freezer. We tried a LITTLE (very VERY runny still... We didn't want to spoil the cream) and LOVED the taste! It's freezing a bit firmer now, I'll review again when it's fully frozen, but so far so good! Just chop the crap out of the fruit and whisk that bad boy like a mad person. :D
Again, we didn't have a blender or food processor, so this is just chopped and whisked! Came out JUST fine!
The important thing is to agitate the mix while it's freezing.
nice recipe, and I hope you realize this easy ice-cream will be the reason for the surprise 10lb's of magic fat i'm gunna gain :)
look at that i used 3 smiles in one comment!
how big is "a bag"? I get my stuff from Costco and their bags are huge . . .
Maybe it doesn't matter too much, just want a ball park guess. Making some tonight, looks GREAT.
Step 2: Find some frozen fruit
Step 3: read how many oz of fruit are in the bag
Step 4 :compare this to the costco bag.
Ex: the normal sized bag has 10 oz of fruit, while the costco bag has 40. therefore, you need to split the fruit into fourths and put them in seperate bags. It doesn't have to be exact.
Now you have premessured bags of fruit. Yay.
Honestly, when I make this (and I do regularly now, peach and strawberry, nom nom nom), I put about 2 handfuls of fruit in my food processor because it's a small one and that's how much it holds.
