Homemade Strawberry Vanilla Bean Ice Cream 🍓🍦

Treat yourself to creamy bliss with this homemade strawberry vanilla bean ice cream! It's a fruity delight you can whip up any time!

Ingredients:
- 1 cup fresh strawberries, hulled and diced
- 2 cups heavy cream
- 1 vanilla bean, split and seeds scraped
- 1 cup whole milk
- ¾ cup granulated sugar, divided
- Pinch of salt
- 6 large egg yolks
- 2 tbsp sugar (for strawberries)
- 1 tsp pure vanilla extract

Instructions:
1. Prepare the strawberries: In a small bowl, combine the diced strawberries with 2 tablespoons of sugar. Allow them to sit for about 30 minutes; this process will help release their natural juices, enhancing their sweetness.

2. Heat the cream and milk mixture: In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the heavy cream, whole milk, half of the granulated sugar, a pinch of salt, and the seeds along with the pod of the vanilla bean. Heat the mixture until it just begins to boil, then take it off the stove.

3. Temper the egg yolks: In a separate bowl, whisk the egg yolks together with the remaining granulated sugar until smooth. Gradually add the hot milk mixture to the egg yolks, a bit at a time, whisking continuously to prevent the yolks from cooking.

4. Cook the custard: Return the mixture back to the saucepan and cook on low heat while stirring constantly with a wooden spoon. Heat the custard until it thickens enough to coat the back of the spoon, typically between 170-175°F.

5. Chill the custard: Pour the custard through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl to remove any lumps. Stir in the pure vanilla extract. Cover the bowl and chill the custard in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours or preferably overnight.

6. Process in the ice cream maker: After chilling, remove the vanilla bean pod and churn the custard according to your ice cream maker’s instructions. In the last few minutes of churning, gently fold in the macerated strawberries for an extra fruity burst.

7. Freeze and serve: Transfer the churned ice cream to an airtight container and freeze for 2-4 hours until firm. Scoop out your delightful creation, serve, and enjoy!

Ingredients:
1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
1 cup rolled oats
1/4 cup granulated sugar
8 oz cream cheese, softened
3 cups fresh or canned peaches, sliced (if canned, drain well)
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 large egg
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/4 tsp cinnamon
1/4 cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed

Instructions:
1. Preheat and Prepare: Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 9x9-inch baking pan with parchment paper for easy removal later.

Press the crust evenly into the bottom of the prepared pan. Bake this crust in the preheated oven for 10 minutes, then take it out and set it aside.

3. Prepare the Cheesecake Layer: In another bowl, beat together the 8 oz of softened cream cheese, 1/4 cup of granulated sugar, 1 large egg, and 1 tsp of vanilla extract. Continue mixing until the mixture is smooth and creamy. Carefully spread this cheesecake layer over the pre-baked crust.

4. Add the Peaches: Arrange the 3 cups of sliced peaches evenly on top of the cheesecake layer, ensuring that they are distributed nicely for a balanced flavor in every bite.

5. Make the Crumble Topping: In a separate bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup of all-purpose flour, 1 cup of rolled oats, 1/4 cup of packed brown sugar, and 1/4 tsp of cinnamon. Next, add the 1/4 cup of cold, cubed unsalted butter to the mixture. Use a fork or your hands to combine it until the topping becomes crumbly.

6. Bake: Sprinkle the crumble topping over the peaches, making sure it's evenly distributed. Place the pan back in the oven and bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and the cheesecake is set.

7. Cool and Chill: Once baked, allow the bars to cool completely at room temperature. For optimal texture, refrigerate for at least 2 hours before slicing into bars.
