Home-made Ice Cream in a Bag!



Summer is almost upon us... Here in SC, I feel like summer is in full swing. It's 86 degrees outside and 90 degrees in my kitchen! This ice cream sure hits the spot and it's a great thing to get kids active in the kitchen! My son, Elliott loves to do this!

What you need:

  • 1 tablespoon Sugar
  • 1/2 cup Milk
  • 1/4 teaspoon Vanilla
  • 6 tablespoons Rock Salt or Kosher Salt
  • 1 pint size plastic bag
  • 1 gallon size plastic bag
  • Ice
What you do:
Put sugar, milk and vanilla in the small bag and seal it good and tight. Fill the big bag half way with ice and the salt. Put the small bag inside the big bag with the ice and salt. Shake and roll the bags around for about 5 minutes. Wipe the salt water of the top of the small bag and open carefully. Voila! Ice Cream

Tip:
The ice and salt gets really cold, so give the kids oven mits or a towel to handle the bags.
