Ziplock Ice Cream

[Jane]

Ziplock Ice Cream

1/2 cup milk

1 Tbsp sugar

1/4 tsp vanilla (you can try other flavors)

Add all ingredients to a pint-size Ziplock freezer bag and zip shut.

Place that bag in a larger (quart-size or bigger) Ziplock bag. Add ice to fill the bag halfway, plus 6 tablespoons of salt (rock or regular). Zip that one shut.

Shake, turn, toss and mix the bag. In about 5 or 10 minutes, you will have cold hands and yummy ice cream!

Note: Don’t try to double this, as it doesn’t seem to work. (Also, be sure you get all of the salt off of the small bag before you open it.)

If you want a healthier version that is even faster try using skim milk and splenda. The ice cream will be done in about 2 minutes, is sweet, half the calories, and totally fat free!

We do this a lot here on our farm in the summer! When we are out working away from the house we pack lunch in a cooler and included the zip lock bags already mixed up. When we are done with lunch we can use the ice to mix up our ice cream dessert. It’s a great treat on a hot day!
