Homemade Ice Cream in a bag

Kids not only love ice cream but enjoy the idea of  making things on their own. Today’s simple recipe is a simpel way to get your kids involved in the kitchen and creates a fun snack.

Ingredients

1/2 cup milk
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1 tablespoon sugar
4 cups crushed ice
4 tablespoons salt
2 quart size Zip-loc bags
1 gallon size Zip-loc freezer bag
gloves or towel to keep fingers from freezing
Instructions
Mix the milk, vanilla and sugar together in one of the quart size bags.Seal tightly, allowing as little air to remain in the bag as possible.Too much air left inside may force the bag open during shaking. Place t  bag inside the other quart size bag, again leaving as little air inside as possible and sealing well. By double-bagging, the risk of salt and ice leaking into the ice cream is minimized. Put the two bags inside the gallon size bag and fill the bag with ice, then sprinkle salt on top. Again let all the air escape and seal the bag. Wrap the bag in the towel or put your gloves on, and shake and massage the bag,making sure the ice surrounds the cream mixture. Five to eight minutes is adequate time for the mixture to freeze into ice cream.
