Strawberry Ice Cream with White Chocolate and Graham Crackers

I’ve wanted an ice cream machine forever but couldn’t bring myself to buy one, because of

1) its unipurpose function
2) how much space it would take in my tiny kitchen cabinets and freezer
3) fact that I could have ice cream anytime and gain a zillion pounds <– most important

Those highly logical reasons were enough to stop me.

BUT then my classmate, Jebran, starting bringing his homemade ice cream/deliciousness to school, and it was so heavenly, he ruined store bought ice cream for me. Everything else just tastes overly sweet now.

So I borrowed his ice cream machine and made this for a class picnic. Never mind that it was the coldest day of the year. Adapted from Food.com.
