How To Make Strawberry Pretzel Ice Cream

This ice cream is made with a base of cream cheese, sugar, whipping cream, buttermilk and vanilla extract. Blend it up until is liquid.

Add in some strawberry jam and fresh strawberries and put it into your ice cream maker.  Check out my favorite ice cream maker here.

Once the ice cream is churned but before you put the ice cream into the freezer to harden, stir in the broken pretzel pieces.  I put my ice cream in the freezer for several hours to let it harden up.

Now I don’t have to wait until Thanksgiving to enjoy one of my favorite flavor combos – strawberry and pretzel.
