Strawberry and Sesame Swirl Soft Serve

We've made this twice, and it is just stunning... really hits the ice cream spot, while being vaguely healthy! And it's so dynamic: the touch of tahini gives it depth, while the amount of fruit makes it wonderfully bright and sharp. We omit the heavy cream and add a pinch of salt; and we use any frozen berry fruit on-hand. Also, though the recipe says this serves two, we make half for the two of us—and it's a perfectly-sized after-dinner bit of sweetness.

PS BTW Seed & Mill’s Halvah is Gluten Free. And, in full disclosure I have no affiliation with them, just a very satisfied customer, daughter of an Israeli, and a faithful New Yawk gal.

As others commented, the recipe left out freezer time to firm up. Prepared as directed, it produces a delicious and attractive dessert with a soupy (or smoothie) consistency. Placed in the freezer for 30 minutes gives it a soft-serve consistency. After two hours it will begin to set like a soft gelato that can be scooped. Love the halva. Try the international section of your store if no Middle East section/store. Or use small chunks of nougat, nut brittle, or chopped nuts.
