Ingredients
  

  • 1/3 cup Strawberry Jam
  • 1 pint Strawberries, green cap removed and cut into quarters
  • 3 ounces Cream Cheese, at room temperature
  • 14 ounce can of Sweetened Condensed Milk
  • 1 tablespoon Vanilla extract
  • 1 pinch Kosher Salt
  • 2 cups Heavy Whipping Cream
  • 8 ounce package of Biscoff Cookies, crushed

Instructions
 

  • Place an 8-inch square pan and a large glass bowl in the freezer for 30 minutes.
  • Combine the jam and strawberries in a small saucepan over medium heat. Cook, stirring frequently, until the berries soften and the jam becomes liquidy, about 5 minutes. Set aside to cool.
  • Beat the cream cheese, sweetened condensed milk, vanilla and salt in a large bowl with a hand-held mixer until smooth. Set aside.
  • Wash and completely dry the beaters.
  • Beat the heavy cream in the large, chilled bowl with a hand-held mixer until stiff peaks form.
  • Fold the cream cheese mixture into the whipped cream.
  • Spoon half of the mixture into the frozen pan.
  • Reserve some of the cookies to sprinkle on top.
  • Sprinkle the cream mixture with half of the remaining crushed cookies and fold gently to incorporate the cookies in the cream.
  • Spoon half of the jam on top and swirl with a wooden skewer or chopstick.
  • Repeat the process with the remaining cream, jam and cookies.
  • Sprinkle the reserved cookies on top.
  • Cover tightly with plastic wrap and freeze until firm, at least 6 hours but preferably overnight.
  • To serve, let the ice cream stand at room temperature for about 5 minutes before scooping into serving bowls.
