Ice Cream in a Bag

Can anyone say Pinterest…

Now is it P-Interest or pinterset?  Either way I love it…I am not as obsessed as some…but I must say I browse during feedings.  During one of my pin-capades…I found a recipe for homemade ice cream.  I tried it…I loved it.  So I will share:

A gallon freezer ziploc bag

A pint or quart freezer ziploc bag

1 cup of cream

add the cup of cream to the quart bag

 your flavors (if you want any)

I chose oreos and andes mint

1-tsp vanilla

1/2 tbsp no calorie sugar or 2 tbsp regular sugar

add these ingredients to the cream in the quart bag.

Release as much air and seal it up tight

Coarse salt or Ice cream salt

fill the gallon ziploc bag halfway with ice and a hand full of salt

Place the cream mixture in the ice/salt bag.  Seal up the gallon bag and Shake…Rattle and Roll for 8-10 minutes.  I wrapped my bag in a dish towel to keep my hands from freezing.

After the 8-10 minutes…remove the ice cream from the ice and rinse off under cold water.  Get all the salt off…even in the lip of the seal,,,you don't want salt in the ice cream when you open the bag.  

TaDaa! Ice Cream.  

Eat immediately or freeze in the bag.  

Riley helped me make this batch…it was a lot of fun and tastes really good.  

My second batch we added reese's cups and carnation chocolate shake protein powder (I didn't have chocolate syrup)  It was fantastic too and full of vitamins!
