Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C). Toss fresh strawberries with 1/4 cup sugar and balsamic vinegar. Spread on a baking sheet and roast for 30 minutes until softened.
  2. Blend cream cheese, remaining sugar, whole milk, heavy cream, lemon juice, corn syrup, salt, and vanilla extract until smooth. Chill the mixture in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
  3. Churn the chilled mixture in your ice cream maker for 20-25 minutes until thickened to a soft-serve consistency.
  4. In the last five minutes of churning, gently fold in the roasted strawberries and graham cracker pieces.
  5. Transfer the ice cream to an airtight container and freeze for at least 2 hours until firm.
