Preparation Steps
1
Wash the strawberries, remove the stems, and dice them into small pieces. In a small saucepan, combine the diced strawberries with the sugar over medium heat. Cook until you get a thick strawberry sauce. Let it cool completely.
2
In a large bowl, whip the cold heavy cream until stiff peaks form. It's important that the cream is very cold, otherwise it won't whip properly.
3
Gently fold the sweetened condensed milk and vanilla extract into the whipped cream, being careful not to deflate the mixture.
4
Swirl the prepared strawberry sauce into the creamy base, but don't fully mix it in – you want a marbled effect.
5
Break the macaron shells into smaller pieces and gently fold them into the ice cream base, ensuring a crunchy texture in every bite.
6
Pour the mixture into a deep container, cover, and freeze for at least 6 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow it to firm up completely.
7
Before serving, let it sit at room temperature for 5-10 minutes to make it easier to scoop. Garnish with extra macaron pieces and fresh strawberries.
