Instructions
First, prepare the strawberries by slicing them, sprinkling the sugar over them and set in the freezer for about 30 minutes.
When ready to make, thaw out ice cream enough to scoop out and add to blender.
Add strawberries and vanilla, then blend for 45-60 seconds. Add milk to the mixture if, or when, needed.
Once desired consistency is reached, pour into glasses and top with whipped cream and a strawberry before enjoying!
Notes
The amount of milk you’ll need, if any, will depend on how thawed your ice cream and strawberries are. If your ice cream is partially melted, you may not need any milk at all.
