Last night it was just ridiculously hot here! So hot that a home cooked meal just wasn’t an option. We headed out to one of our favorite spots…Cookout.
On the way home, we stopped and got the stuff to make ice cream..homemade..in a bag!! When the kids were younger I heard about making ice cream in a freezer bag. I thought it would be pretty cool to try out but, I thought I needed to wait until they were older. I was right. But it was such a fun and neat project to try out.
All you do is fill a gallon size freezer bag {HALF} full of ice. Throw in a {HALF CUP} of rock salt.
Then, in a quart size freezer bag, throw in a {CUP} of heavy cream, {2 TBSP} sugar, and {1/2 TSP} of vanilla. And seal shut.
Once you get the vanilla/cream mixture done and sealed, stick that bag inside the bag of ice and seal the ice bag shut.
Now, SHAKE IT SHAKE IT SHAKE IT! Shake that bag for a good five minutes!
Once you finish your shaking, open the ice bag and pull out the cream bag.
And……
VIOLA!! Homemade ice cream that you can eat straight out of the bag!!!
I hope y’all have as much fun with this one as my kiddos did.
