RECIPES - Home made Ice cream


Milk can become homemade ice cream in five minutes by using a bag! This homemade, creamy treat is a summertime delight for kids and adults alike.

What you'll need:
- 1 Tbsp sugar
- 1/2 cup milk or half & half
- 2 tsp instant dessert
- 6 Tbsp rock salt
- 1 medium plastic food storage bag (e.g., Ziploc)
- 1 large or extra large plastic food storage bag
- Ice cubes

How to make it:
1. Fill the large bag half full of ice, and add the rock salt. Seal the bag.
2. Put milk, instant dessert, and sugar into the small bag, and seal it.
3. Place the small bag inside the large one, and seal it again carefully.
4. Shake until the mixture is ice cream, which takes about 5 minutes.
5. Wipe off the top of the small bag, then open it carefully. Enjoy!

Tips:
A 1/2 cup milk will make about 1 scoop of ice cream, so double the recipe if you want more. But don't increase the proportions more that that - a large amount might be too big for kids to pick-up because the ice itself is heavy.
