My whole family really enjoys this recipe. I have made this 3 times so far, once with raspberries. After we made the strawberry icecream I thought it might be better if the strawberries were mashed a little, although I have not tried this yet, but I will. I have also tried once using FF half and half in place of the milk and FF sweetened cond. milk, and the heavy cream and no one could tell the difference. I thought it froze well too both ways fine. If you want the taste more like Breyers(which I love), is to heat the milk, take a vanilla bean, slice it open lengthwise, scrap out the inside with a spoon or blunt end of knife, stir it in the milk mixture,then toss the whole bean in the milk, chill. Before mixing, take out the bean, rinse it, dry it, and you could put in a sugar container for vanilla sugar later for your coffee, tea or use the sugar for cooking. If you do this do not add as much vanilla extract, I only put about half.
But made just like the recipe states, it is very good, and my family all voted we like this one the best so far out of about 6 recipes.
