Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups heavy cream
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar (for cream base)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups fresh raspberries (for raspberry swirl)
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice (for raspberry swirl)
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar (for raspberry swirl)
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt (a pinch, for raspberry swirl)

Instructions
 

  • In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the heavy cream, whole milk, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract until the sugar is completely dissolved and the mixture is smooth.
  • In a small saucepan, combine the fresh raspberries, lemon juice, powdered sugar, and a pinch of salt. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, for 5–7 minutes, or until the raspberries break down into a thick sauce.
  • Remove the saucepan from heat and let the raspberry sauce cool for 5 minutes. Strain the sauce through a fine-mesh sieve to remove the seeds, pressing with the back of a spoon to extract as much liquid as possible.
  • Pour the cream mixture into your ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer’s instructions until it reaches a soft-serve consistency.
  • Drizzle the cooled raspberry sauce over the churned ice cream and gently swirl it in with a spoon or spatula. For an even distribution, churn for another minute or two.
  • Transfer the ice cream to an airtight container, smoothing the top with a spatula. Cover the surface directly with plastic wrap or parchment paper to prevent ice crystals, then seal the container.
  • Freeze the ice cream for at least 4 hours, or until firm. For best results, freeze overnight.
  • When ready to serve, scoop the ice cream into bowls or cones. Enjoy your homemade Dreamy Raspberry Reverie Swirl Ice Cream!

Notes

For a dairy-free version, substitute the heavy cream and whole milk with full-fat coconut milk or almond milk creamer.
