Strawberry-Sour Cream Ice Cream

Jump to Recipe
Strawberry-Sour Cream Ice Cream

When I first saw the title for sour cream strawberry ice cream, I was definitely not enthused.  So, I moved on.  But, when I finally had so many fresh picked strawberries at my complete disposal, I decided it was time to get over my picky-self and dive in.

I honestly don’t even know what I was so squeamish about.  This ice cream is amazing!  The sour cream only gives a very faint tartness to the ice cream, but it’s perfect that way.  It’s not overly sweet, but it’s perfectly creamy.  The fresh strawberry taste really shines through.  So, don’t be afraid of the sour cream, because it only makes the ice cream creamier!  This is a recipe that I will definitely be coming back to time, and time again.
