What Does Strawberry Cheesecake Ice Cream Taste Like?

This no churn ice cream tastes like a creamy slice of strawberry cheesecake transformed into the perfect frozen dessert. The cream cheese creates a rich cheesecake flavor while the strawberries add a fresh, fruity sweetness.

Ingredients You’ll Need

• 2 cups heavy whipping cream
• 1 (14 oz) can sweetened condensed milk
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 4 oz cream cheese, softened
• 1 pound fresh strawberries
• 1/2 cup crushed gluten-free graham crackers
• 1/2 cup white chocolate chips

How to Make Strawberry Cheesecake No Churn Ice Cream

Prepare the Pan

First, place a 9×5 loaf pan into the freezer while you prepare the ice cream mixture. Chilling the pan helps the ice cream begin freezing more quickly.

Whip the Cream

Next, in a large mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream using a hand mixer or stand mixer until stiff peaks form. This step creates the light and creamy texture that makes no churn ice cream so delicious.

Make the Ice Cream Base

Then, gently fold the sweetened condensed milk and vanilla extract into the whipped cream. After that, add the softened cream cheese and continue folding until smooth and combined.

Prepare the Strawberries

Slice the strawberries and mash them slightly until they resemble a chunky jam consistency. Reserve about 1/4 of the strawberries for swirling on top later.

Add the Strawberries

Fold 3/4 of the strawberries into the prepared ice cream base. Be careful not to overmix because you want beautiful strawberry swirls throughout the ice cream.

Layer the Ice Cream

Remove the chilled loaf pan from the freezer. Spread half of the ice cream mixture into the pan. Sprinkle half of the white chocolate chips and crushed gluten-free graham crackers over the top.

Then, add the remaining ice cream mixture. Finally, spoon the remaining strawberries over the top and gently swirl them into the ice cream using a knife. Sprinkle the remaining white chocolate chips and graham crackers on top.

Freeze Until Firm

Cover the loaf pan tightly with plastic wrap and freeze on a level surface for 6–8 hours or until fully set.

Tips for the Best No Churn Ice Cream

• Use cold heavy cream for the best whipped texture.
• Make sure the cream cheese is softened so it blends smoothly into the mixture.
• Do not overmix after adding the strawberries because it can deflate the whipped cream.
• Use your favorite gluten-free graham crackers for the perfect cheesecake crunch.
• Freeze overnight for the creamiest texture and easiest scooping.

Storage Tips

Store this gluten-free strawberry cheesecake ice cream tightly covered in the freezer for up to 2 weeks. Before serving, allow the ice cream to sit at room temperature for about 5 minutes to soften slightly for easier scooping.

Perfect for Every Occasion

This easy gluten-free dessert is perfect for summer parties, birthdays, BBQs, holidays, or simply keeping in the freezer for a sweet treat anytime. Because it is so simple to make ahead of time, it is also a wonderful dessert option for entertaining guests.

Whether you have celiac disease or simply love homemade ice cream, this Strawberry Cheesecake No Churn Ice Cream is guaranteed to become a family favorite.
