Greek Yogurt Ice Cream 

A treat you will enjoy

You need 3 -ingredients, and the taste will blow your mind.

Ingredients:

  • 300 ml of Greek yogurt
  • 300 ml of sweet cream
  • 250 ml of condensed milk

Preparation:

Mix all the ingredients and beat with a mixer for a few minutes. Then pour it into a container and put it in the freezer for at least 4 hours. The trick to making the ice cream creamier is to stir it every hour with a spatula.

Homemade Cherry Ice Cream 

A refreshing treat that no one can resist

Summer is approaching, and ice cream is one of my favorite treats. That's why it's the right time to make homemade cherry ice cream that will be better than store-bought.

Ingredients:

  • 300 g of frozen cherries
  • 150 g of sugar
  • A bag of vanillin-sugar
  • Three dl of sour cream
  • Three dl of sweet cream
  • A few drops of cherry

Preparation:

Defrost the cherries. Set aside a third of the cherries.

Cook the rest of the fruit with sugar and vanillin sugar on high heat until you get jam consistency. Let it cool down.

Mix the prepared fruit with the sour cream. Beat the sweet cream, and add the cleaned cherries and the sour cream mixture. Mix gently until the mixture is combined.

Put the creamy mixture in a plastic container with a lid, then put it in the freezer. Serve the ice cream with biscuits.

Creamy Banana Ice Cream or "Quick Ice Cream"

Did you know homemade ice cream can be made from just one ingredient? The magic ingredient is bananas, and the number of bananas needed to make ice cream depends on how much you want.

Preparation:

Cut the bananas into rings and put them in a bowl. Keep the container in the freezer until the fruit is frozen. Then, mash the frozen bananas in a blender, mixer, or similar device. Since the bananas will stick together, you must stir them from time to time.

Put the resulting creamy mixture in the freezer for a while longer. When the mixture cools down enough, your ice cream is ready. If you wish, add another ingredient to the mix for a richer taste.

 

Party on, Smarties! With love Smarty had a Party!
