Ice cream in a bag

I found this recipe on a kids website online and thought it would be fun to try. We already had all the ingredients, so I told Kenzie, "We're going to do an experiment!"

Ice Cream in 5 Minutes!
This is what you'll need:
• 1 gallon-sized ziploc bag
• 1 quart-sized ziploc bag
• whole milk
• sugar
• vanilla\
• salt
• ice

Here's what you do:
• In the 1 quart-sized bag, put: 1 cup milk , 1 Tablespoon sugar (i will use a little more next time) and 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
• In the gallon-sized bag, put: 1/3 cup salt, 3/4 of the bag filled with ice cubes
• Place the smaller bag inside the larger bag (make sure the seal is tight!).
• Shake vigorously for 5 minutes. ENJOY!
It really worked! + all the shaking made my arms tired making me realize I was burning many calories making this ice cream, so I didn't feel bad eating a few bites :)



I think I made ice cream this way in elementary school once.
