    I scream you scream we all scream for ice cream!

    I wanted to share a home made ice cream recipe. This is something simple that you could do when you are together or apart.

    1/2 cup milk

    1/2 teaspoon vanilla

    1 tablespoon sugar

    4 cups crushed ice

    4 tablespoons salt

    2 quart size Zip-loc bags

    1 gallon size Zip-log freezer bag

    a hand towel or gloves to keep fingers from freezing

    plastic spoon

    trash bag for clean up

    paper towels, just in case

    measuring cups and spoons - plastic is best

    Mix the milk, vanilla and sugar together in one of the quart size bags. Seal tightly, allowing as little air to remain in the bag as possible. Too much air left inside may force the bag open during shaking. Place this bag inside the other quart size bag, again leaving as little air inside as possible and sealing well. By double-bagging, the risk of salt and ice leaking into the ice cream is minimized. Put the two bags inside the galloon size bag and fill the bag with ice, then sprinkle the salt on top. Again let all the air escape and seal the bag. Wrap the bag in the towel or put gloves on, and shake and massage the bag, making sure the ice surrounds the cream mixture. 5 to 8 minutes is adequate time for the mixture to freeze into ice cream.


    Enjoy

    Sounds good. Is the salt regular, table salt, or ice cream salt? I've always made homemade ice cream with salt specifically for ice cream, so I just wanted to ask.

      you will use rock salt. it helps melt the ice and make it colder.

                It wont take up much room. It doesn't make much ice cream.
