Need A Way To Entertain Your Kids – Get Them Making Ice Cream In A Bag

I love to make Ice Cream. All sorts and every type of method. This method makes just one serving, but it’s really great especially if you get kids involved. I have also done this at a dinner party, getting my guests all making their own serving. Very cool. (You don’t know my friends). It’s also great if you are babysitting some kids and don’t know what to do with them. They really love this.

What you need for this.

1/2 cup milk .You can use cream but milk is fine here too, and keeps it that bit healthier, even better would be to use half fat milk.

Some sugar, about a tablespoon will do.

Chocolate syrup or cocoa power or vanilla extract. About a 1/4 teaspoon.

You will need quite a bit of ice. So you can make that in advance or pre buy it.

Salt. Rock salt is best, this can be bought. However you can also use household table salt.

You also need two plastic bags. 1 Small and 1 Large. The small one should be quart sized and the large one gallon sized.

Some great dancing music.

So now let the games begin.

So take the milk, the sugar and the flavoring you have chosen and mix them together in a bowl, the put the mix into your small bag and seal it tightly so that it can’t leak out.

Take your bigger bag, and place the ice and salt into it. It should now be about half full with ice and salt combo.

Now take the small bag and put it into the big bag. The most important thing here is to make sure that both bags are are sealed really well as you don’t want them mixing together. You can use tape if needed, that’s fine.

And now the fun and magical bit. Put on that music, shake it on down, get that ice mixture moving around, shake it, massage it etc and in 10 to 15 minutes, depending on your dancing ability you will be rewarded with one serving of great ice cream. Hey presto! Enjoy.
