Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups (480 ml) heavy whipping cream
  • 1 can (14 oz / 397 g) sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 tsp (5 ml) vanilla extract
  • 1 cup (150 g) strawberries, fresh or frozen, hulled and sliced
  • 1 cup (150 g) blueberries, fresh or frozen
  • 2 tablespoons (15 g) powdered sugar (optional)
  • 1 teaspoon (5 ml) lemon juice

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Berry Purees (10 minutes): In two separate bowls, mash the strawberries and blueberries. Add 1 tablespoon of powdered sugar and half a teaspoon of lemon juice to each bowl. Stir well and set aside to macerate while you whip the cream.
  2. Whip the Heavy Cream (5-7 minutes): Using an electric mixer on medium-high speed, whip the heavy cream until it holds stiff peaks.
  3. Fold in Sweetened Condensed Milk and Vanilla (2 minutes): Gently fold the sweetened condensed milk and vanilla extract into the whipped cream using a spatula until just combined.
  4. Divide the Cream Mixture (1 minute): Separate the whipped cream mixture evenly into three bowls.
  5. Color the Cream Layers (3 minutes): Fold the mashed strawberries into one bowl, blueberries into the second, and leave the third plain for the white layer.
  6. Layer the Ice Cream (5 minutes): Spoon the red (strawberry) mixture into the bottom of a loaf pan, spread evenly. Add the white cream layer on top, smoothing gently. Finally, add the blue (blueberry) layer. Avoid mixing layers.
  7. Freeze for at Least 6 Hours: Cover the pan tightly with plastic wrap or a lid and freeze until firm.
  8. Serve and Enjoy: Let the ice cream sit at room temperature for 5 minutes before scooping.

Notes

Use cold bowls and beaters for whipping cream to help it whip faster and hold volume longer. Drain excess juice from berries before folding to avoid watery texture. Layer gently to keep colors distinct. Let ice cream soften for 5 minutes before scooping. For dairy-free version, substitute heavy cream with full-fat coconut cream and use coconut condensed milk.
