• When the base is cold pour into the ice cream machine and spin.
• Roasted Strawberries:
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
• Clean and cut the strawberries depending on the size of them in quarters or halves, as long as they are all the same size in the end.
• Sprinkle 1/4 cup of sugar over the cut strawberries and a pinch or salt.
• Rub a sheet pan or cookie sheet, with butter until nicely covered. Place the buttered sheet pan in the oven for 2 to 3 minutes so it gets very hot. Carefully pull the sheet pan out of the oven and pour the strawberries on the hot sheet pan (be careful of the splatter). Place the sheet pan with the strawberries back in the oven for 3 minutes.

Mix until all the ingredients are evenly dispersed. Add the cold butter and drop the diced butter into the mixer only a few cubes at a time. While the machine is running do not walk away from it, you do not want the mixture to over mix. You will know that the streusel is done when it has just come together and the color will change from pale light brown to medium tan.

• Sprinkle the streusel onto the cookie sheet.
