Tutti-Frutti Ice Cream

In honor of the 4th of July...and also just because I want to share...here's a delicious homemade ice cream that's different than the normal vanilla. This is a recipe that's been in our family for years. It's from my husband's aunt and is a family favorite. The original recipe called for just 2 cups of cream and whole milk instead of half & half...but I like a creamier texture as opposed to an icy one. I also used just 2 cups of sugar and that gave the ice cream a slightly tart flavor so if you want yours sweeter, just add an extra cup of sugar. However you decide to make it...just make it!! You won't regret it!!

Tutti-Frutti Ice Cream

1 quart heavy whipping cream
2 – 3 cups sugar
2 packages of regular Strawberry Kool-Aid
1 large can crushed pineapple (undrained)
1 24-ounce container frozen sweetened strawberries
5 – 6 mashed bananas
Half & Half

In a 1 gallon ice cream freezer, mix together the whipping cream, sugar and Kool-Aid. Add the pineapple, strawberries and bananas. Mix well and add half & half to fill line. Freeze according to your freezer’s directions.


Here are all of our little friends...ready to be joined together into a swirl of happiness.
