You’ll also need a small saucepan to make the strawberry syrup and a mixer, either a hand mixer or a stand mixer. You’ll also need measuring cups and spoons, a sharp knife and chopping board.

• Strawberries – In a small saucepan, combine strawberries, sugar and lemon juice.
• Thicken – Mix together cold water and cornstarch, add to saucepan. Bring to a boil, then immediately lower the heat and simmer gently for 3-5 minutes or just until slightly thickened. Remove from heat. Mash with a fork so only small chunks remain. Set aside to cool, then chill thoroughly.

• Condensed Milk – Add condensed milk and continue to whip until fully combined and smooth.
• Whip Heavy Cream – In a separate bowl use mixer to whip heavy cream and vanilla together until stiff peaks form.
• Combine – Fold vanilla whipped cream into cream cheese mixture by hand.
• Assemble in Pan – Pour half of ice cream mixture into the bottom of a 9×5 inch loaf pan. Dollop 1/2 strawberry mixture over cream and top with 1/2 crushed graham crackers. Use the sharp end of a knife to swirl through cream. Repeat layers with ice cream, strawberries and graham crackers. Swirl with a knife.
• Freeze until set around 8 hours, or overnight. Scoop into dishes or waffle cones for serving.

How to Make the Best No Churn Strawberry Cheesecake Ice Cream

Making ice cream can be a fun family project that everyone can participate in and learn while they’re at it. I wanted to mention some pointers to get you started:

• Ingredients you’ll need to make homemade Strawberry Cheesecake Ice Cream: Fresh strawberries, granulated sugar, lemon juice, water, cornstarch, cream cheese, one can of sweetened condensed milk, heavy cream, vanilla extract and graham crackers.
• For the best end result, it’s best if the strawberry pieces aren’t too large.
• It’s important to chill the cooked strawberry mixture before swirling with the cream. If it’s warm, it can cause the creamy ice cream mixture to separate and break down.
• What makes ice crystals form in ice cream? It’s one of the most common issues with homemade ice cream and it’s caused when large ice crystals form in the ice cream. Usually ice crystals are the result of too much water in the mixture or excessive freezing time. You’ll be relieved to know that’s not typically an issue with this no churn ice cream recipe.
• You can break, crush or chop the graham crackers prior to adding them to the ice cream.
• Store no churn Strawberry Cheesecake Ice Cream in the freezer tightly covered for 2-4 weeks.
