Follow The Directions

01

Step

In a saucepan, combine 1 ½ pounds of the blackberries (about 5 cups), sugar, and lemon juice. Bring to a simmer over medium heat. (5 minutes)

02

Step

Using a potato masher, crush the berries. Continue to simmer until the mixture thickens and reduces by half, approximately 20 minutes. Increase heat for faster reduction, but watch carefully to prevent scorching.

03

Step

Strain the blackberry mixture through a fine-mesh strainer into a bowl to remove seeds. Ensure you extract every drop of juice. Discard the solids. Stir in the sweetened condensed milk and vanilla extract. Refrigerate until completely chilled, about 1 hour.

04

Step

In a chilled glass or metal bowl, beat the heavy cream with an electric mixer until medium-stiff peaks form. (5 minutes)

05

Step

Gently fold half of the whipped cream into the chilled blackberry mixture using a whisk until almost incorporated. Add the remaining whipped cream and use a spatula to gently fold in. (5 minutes)

06

Step

Pour the mixture into a freezer-safe container, cover, and freeze until solid, at least 4 hours and up to overnight.

07

Step

To serve, add the remaining fresh blackberries to the top of the ice cream. Use an ice cream scoop to mix and crush the fresh berries into the ice cream as you scoop. Garnish each serving with additional fresh berries.

For a smoother texture, consider using an immersion blender to puree the cooked blackberry mixture before straining.
Adjust the amount of fresh blackberries added at the end to your personal preference.
If you don't have fresh blackberries, frozen blackberries can be substituted. Be sure to thaw and drain them well before use.

    I let the ice cream sit out for about 10 minutes before scooping and it was the perfect consistency.
