Ice Cream Made in a Bag

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. We like to being this along to make on camping trips.
Ice cream goes so well with Dutch oven cobblers and the kids love to
help!

What you'll need:
1 tablespoon sugar
1/2 cup milk or half & half
1/4 teaspoon vanilla
6 tablespoons rock salt
1 pint-size plastic food storage bag (e.g., Ziploc)
1 gallon-size plastic food storage bag
Ice cubes
How to make it:
Fill the large bag half full of ice, and add the rock salt. Seal the bag.
Put milk, vanilla, and sugar into the small bag, and seal it.
Place the small bag inside the large one, and seal it again carefully.
Shake until the mixture is ice cream, which takes about 5 minutes.
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
