Strawberry Ice Cream

Using extra strawberries from the trifle Jessica made for Thanksgiving, and the extra heavy cream left over from the butternut squash soup, I made some strawberry ice cream. The extra cream was a little more than 2 cups but I tried to use less (and less milk) as to not overflow the ice cream maker. I still had too much. But it allowed me to really test out making two batches back-to-back. The cold cylinder stays cold enough to do it. I did add the leftover cream to the part that did not go into the first batch, so I don't know if that was the cause, or if filling the cylinder up only half way, but the second batch ended up much more solid after a shorter time. Definitely something to look into for the next batch.
