The Secret Ingredient (Black Pepper): Sweet Cream Ice Cream With Strawberry-Black Pepper Sauce Recipe

• 1 pint sweet cream or vanilla ice cream
• 10 ounces frozen strawberries, thawed
• 12 turns on the peppermill of black pepper
• 1/4 cup granulated sugar
• 2 tablespoons fresh-squeezed orange juice
• 1/2 cup water

1. Take the ice cream out of the freezer to soften.
2. In a food processor, combine strawberries, black pepper, sugar, orange juice, and water. Pulse until almost smooth, but with a few chunks left in the mixture. Pour the mixture into a medium saucepot. Turn the heat to medium, and bring to a bubble. Simmer until the mixture comes together as a sauce, and slightly thickens-about 4 minutes. Set aside to cool to room temperature, or just a touch warmer.
3. Spoon 4 large ice cream scoops of sweet cream ice cream into 4 bowls. Pour the cooled strawberry-pepper sauce over the ice cream, and top with a simple cookie. Serve immediately.
