You CAN make ice cream without an ice cream maker, and it doesn't take forever! This Italian dessert is decadent and so much easier to make than ice cream. I've seen a few versions out there that use eggs, but this recipe is a bit more simple. You only need a few ingredients, it's a perfect Summer treat! You can make this with your favorite berry or a combination of all of them.
Berry Semifreddo
4 cups berries ( I used strawberries)
3/4 cup sugar
2 tsp vanilla
1 cup heavy cream
Line a loaf pan with plastic wrap and set aside. Place the berries, sugar, and vanilla in a food processor and puree. Reserve one cup of the puree, cover and refrigerate, and put the rest in a large bowl. In another bowl beat the cream until soft peaks form when you take the beaters out of the cream. Gently fold the whipped cream mixture into the berry puree until all of the cream is mixed in. Pour mixture into loaf pan and freeze for at least two hours. When ready to serve, pull the semifreddo out of the pan onto a plate, and remove the plastic wrap. Cut into slices and top with reserved berry puree. Enjoy!
