How to Make It
1. Step
Make the strawberry ice cream: In a small blender, blend the strawberries and milk until slightly chunky.
2. Step
Add the brown sugar, cream cheese, sweetened condensed milk, heavy cream and blended strawberries to a 12-ounce mason jar. Using an electric hand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment or one standard beater, whip until thickened, 3–5 minutes. Add the crushed freeze-dried strawberries and stir to incorporate. Seal the jar tightly with the lid and freeze for at least 5 hours, or overnight.
3. Step
Make the chocolate ice cream: Add the brown sugar, cream cheese, sweetened condensed milk, heavy cream, and cocoa powder to a 12-ounce mason jar. Using an electric hand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment or one standard beater, whip until thickened, 3–5 minutes. Seal the jar with the lid and freeze for at least 5 hours, or overnight.
4. Step
Make the matcha mint chocolate chip ice cream: Add the brown sugar, cream cheese, sweetened condensed milk, heavy cream, matcha powder, and mint extract to a 12-ounce mason jar. Using an electric hand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment or one standard beater, whip until thickened, 3–5 minutes. Add the chocolate chips and stir to incorporate. Seal the jar tightly with the lid and freeze for at least 5 hours, or overnight, stirring after about 2 hours to make sure the chocolate chips are evenly distributed.
