Metrolife puts together three creamy ice cream recipes, which will fix your mood in no time.
Vanilla choco chip ice cream
Ingredients
2 cups thickened cream
1 cup condensed milk
1 tsp vanilla extract
Waffle cones, to serve
A few choco chips for garnish
Method
To prepare the whipped cream, pour two cups of thickened cream into a blender and blend for about 40-50 seconds till the cream turns light and fluffy. Do not over-blend or the mixture will turn into butter.
Transfer the prepared whipped cream to a large mixing bowl. Furthermore, pour one cup of condensed milk making sure that the milk is cold or refrigerated for at least 30 minutes.
Add one tsp of vanilla extract and gently fold it without letting the air into the whipped cream. Now, transfer the mixture into an airtight container and close it thoroughly.
Freeze the mixture for at least five hours or until it sets completely. Next, take a scooper and scoop up the vanilla ice cream onto a waffle cone (dip your scooper in hot water prior to scooping for ease).
Garnish with a few coco chips or choco syrup on top before serving.

Strawberry ice cream
Ingredients
1 1/2 cups strawberries, diced
2 tbsp honey
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 tsp lemon juice
1 cup heavy whipping cream
1/2 cup half and half
1 tsp vanilla extract
Method
In a large bowl, mix strawberries, honey, sugar, and lemon juice. Allow it to sit for 15-20 minutes, or until the strawberries have released their juices.
Mash the mixture with a potato masher, fork, or pastry cutter until smooth. For a better result, you could use a blender or a food processor.
To the strawberries, mix heavy cream, half at a time, and vanilla extract. Stir till just combined.
Pour the mixture into your ice cream maker and churn for 15-20 minutes. You can eat the ice cream soft-serve, or freeze it in an airtight container for three to four hours to thicken it up slightly.
For best results, allow the ice cream to sit at room temperature for about five to 10 minutes to soften before serving.
