Strawberry Dream Ice Cream

Any one else out there being hit with a big heatwave? We sure are here in Southern California. It is mid 80's, and that part isn't bad. But the humidity!!! We are not used to having such bad humidity in San Diego. Thank goodness for the beach and the pool! 

Strawberries are still in an abundance here in California. It is so nice because every time I go to the Farmer's market, I pick up several pounds. They are the best for making chilled desserts for this heatwave. My husbands absolute favorite, is an extra creamy ice cream that I make. We call it Strawberry dream. It is actually really really easy to make.

3 cups heavy whipping cream
