Homemade Ice Cream

You don't need any fancy equipment (unless you consider a ziploc baggie fancy)


1 Tbsp. sugar
1/2 cup half & half
1/4 tsp. vanilla
6 tablespoons rock salt
1 pint-size Ziploc bag
1 gallon-size Ziploc bag
Ice


Fill the large bag about half way with ice, and add the rock salt. Seal the bag.
Put half and half (or milk), vanilla, and sugar into the small bag. Seal tightly!
Place the small bag inside of the bigger bag. Seal it good.Shake until the mixture is solid, which takes about 5 minutes. The longer/faster you shake the more solid it will be. Each bag will make approximately 1 scoop of ice cream and you can add any flavors you like to the mix (i like to put in some broken oreos or cocoa powder.

This is a super fun activity to do with kids.
