Fun Homemade Ice Cream

Fun Homemade Ice Cream

By Caley Kolb

Shake up a summer treat that is just as fun to make as it is to eat for the little ones! With simple ingredients this ice cream tastes delicious and can be easily customized for special dietary needs.  My girls loved this! We used dairy free milk and the consistency of the ice cream still was great.

You will need:

·         1 cup whole milk (may be substituted with a dairy free alternative)

·         2 tbsp. honey

·         ½ tsp. vanilla extract

·         ¾ cup salt

·         2 cups ice

·         2 sandwich size Ziploc bag

·         1 gallon size Ziploc bag

·         Toppings (fresh fruit, chocolate syrup, whipped cream exc.)

·         Winter gloves (optional but helpful!)

Step 1-

Combine milk, honey, and vanilla into sandwich bag. Place the second sandwich bag over the first to prevent salt from leaking in.

Step 2-

Combine salt and ice in the gallon size bag. Then add your sandwich bags in and remove air before zipping up the bag. You can use a pair of winter gloves to help protect little hands for the next step as it gets very cold.

Step 3-

SHAKE, SHAKE, AND SHAKE! It takes about 10 minutes of shaking the bag to get a nice consistency.

Step 4-

Pour contents of sandwich bag into a bowl and add your desired toppings.  Enjoy!
