This is a recipe I learned as a kid. We've done this camping with all the kids and it is super fun to have fresh ice cream in the mountains. It only takes 5 minutes to mix. There is a great video that shows you how to do it at Family Fun .
Here's the bags ready to go.
My daughter was worried that her hands would get cold so she held the bag between a towel. We shook the crazies out of the bag.(maybe a little to much because we did get a hole in one of the bags)
5 minutes later this is what we have. Yummy ice cream to enjoy.
No Bowl Necessary!!
Ice Cream In a Bag
Ingredients
2 tablespoons sugar
1 cup half and half
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup salt (The bigger the granules, the better. Kosher or rock salt works best, but table salt is fine.)
Ice cubes (enough to fill each gallon-size bag about half full)
1 pint-size ziplock bag
1 gallon-size ziplock bag
Instructions
Combine the sugar, half and half, and vanilla extract in the pint-size bag and seal it tightly.
Place the salt and ice in the gallon-size bag, then place the sealed smaller bag inside as well. Seal the larger bag. Now shake the bags until the mixture hardens (about 5 minutes). Feel the small bag to determine when it's done.
Take the smaller bag out of the larger one, add mix-ins, and eat the ice cream right out of the bag. Easy cleanup too! Serves 1.
