#17-Homemade Ice Cream

I love homemade ice cream and thought this was a fun way to get the kids involved in making it.  We used to make this as kids but I don't ever remember the ice cream setting up well. I don't know if I just wasn't patient enough to wait for it to get hard or if the recipe was off.  This recipe works really well and became hard in about 5-7 min. It also tastes wonderful...it's Vanilla so you can add whatever you want to it.  We like to add raspberries or crushed butterfingers, it's good all alone too.

Homemade Ice Cream Recipe
2 Cups of Whipping Cream
2 Cups Milk
1/2 Cup Sugar
2 tsp. Vanilla Extract

You will also need:
6 Tbs. Rock/Kosher Salt (The Big Stuff)
1 Pint Size Ziploc Bag
1 Gallon Size Ziploc Bag
Ice Cubes

1- Fill the large bag half way full of ice and add salt, seal bag.
2-Add cream, milk, sugar and extract into a big bowl and mix well
2- Dish out desired amount of mixture into pint size bag.  (I usually do about 1 cup per bag, makes 4), seal bag.
3- Put small bag in larger bag making sure both bags are sealed well.
4- Shake bag (s) until mix becomes hard...takes about 5 min.
5- Carefully open the bags and enjoy!
