Wow! Mildly sweet and delicously creamy with a nice strawberry kick. I adapted this recipe from an Italian cooking show on TV (don't remember which one). Be sure to dice the strawberries small, as they're too hard to cut through when frozen. "Cooking" time is actually freezing time. Note: contains raw eggs.
