Homemade Ice Cream 

Make your own homemade ice cream in less 20 minutes. 

What you'll need:

Ice
1 cup ice cream salt (coarse salt)
4 Tbsp. sugar
2 Cups half & half
1 Tsp. vanilla extract
Gallon-Size Ziploc Bag
Quart-Size Ziploc Bag

Mix sugar, half & half, and vanilla extract together. Pour mixture into quart-size ziploc bag. Press the air out of the bag and be sure to close it good. 

Put some ice in the bottom of the gallon- size bag and add 1/2 cup of salt. Place bag with mixture on top of the ice. Put more ice over the bag with mixture and add the remaining 1/2 cup of salt. Close bag. 

Now let the kids shake the bag for 10 minutes. They will see the mixture then to ice cream before their eyes.

If you're not crazy about vanilla or just maybe want to try some different flavors try these ideas:

• add chopped bananas to mixture
•  add chopped strawberries to mixture
•  add chopped blueberries to mixture
• add chocolate syrup to mixture

Enjoy!
