Instant Ice Cream Because It’s Too Late, Too Rainy Blah, Blah Blah for a Store Run

It’s too late, too hot, too rainy, blah, blah blah for a store run but everyone is craving a sweet treat is a pretty common refrain at my house. Luckily, a pantry staple at my house is sweetened condensed milk which can be turned into a delicious frozen treat in less than three minutes.  Actually, the three minutes includes washing the blender, the treat is ready to eat in under two.

sweetened condensed milk

frozen strawberries or favorite frozen fruit

salt

vanilla

blender or food processor

Add one can sweetened condensed milk (14oz) , 3-5 cups of frozen strawberries or any other frozen fruit, a pinch of salt and a splash of vanilla ( maybe ½ teaspoon) blend until smooth and the fruit is pureed.

It’s delicious and ready to eat, dig in with  long handled spoons or be civilized and put it in bowls.   You can also put it in a shallow pan and freeze it for later-but why?
