How To Make Ice Cream In A Bag No Cooking! No Ice Cream Machine

1. 1

   For each child you will need:

2. 2

   2 pint-size resealable plastic freezer bags.

3. 3

   1 gallon-size resealable plastic freezer bag.

4. 4

   Gloves or towel to protect fingers.

5. 5

   In a pitcher or large measuring cup, stir together the whipping cream, half-and-half, sugar, and vanilla extract until sugar has dissolved.

6. 6

   Pour about 1/2 cup of mixture into a pint-size plastic bag and seal carefully, squeezing out extra air. Place each sealed bag into a second pint-size bag, again squeezing out extra air. Seal carefully.

7. 7

   Fill each gallon-size plastic bag about halfway with ice and add 1/2 cup coarse salt. Place one sealed small bag into the large bag, squeeze out most of the air, and seal the large bag.

8. 8

   Wear mittens or thick gloves, or wrap the bag in a towel to protect hands against the extreme cold. Shake and massage the bag for about 5 minutes or until mixture thickens into ice cream. Add more salt and ice to the outer bag if ice cream hasn't formed after 10 minutes of continuous motion.

9. 9

   Remove the outer pint-size bag before you open the inner bag so you don't get any of the salty ice on your ice cream!
