Bringing you some summertime sweetness to your life…

What sounds tastier right now than homemade Strawberry Buttermilk Ice Cream? Yeah, I don’t know either…

The buttermilk allows you to create a delicious treat that’s low in fat. Buttermilk is actually 1% milk fat, and it tastes tangy, provides creaminess and thickness, without all those extra calories. Yay, us!

I tried to use my brand new Rival Ice Cream Maker to no avail..it didn’t freeze my mixture at all, despite following the directions. 🙁

That’s okay though, we went basic on them, and froze that in the freezer, being sure to stir frequently to avoid larger ice crystals.

Voila…a delicious treat just in time for my birthday too.

* Tip: Use 1/4 tsp xantham gum for low-fat ice creams to help thicken them without the fat.
