Need A Way To Entertain Your Kids – Get Them Making Ice Cream In A Bag
August 18th, 2009
This is a really cool thing to do, and my children love it. Actually so do my friends, it’s great fun at a dinner party, or barbecue too. But I know no better way on a rainy day, when baby sitting some children to get them entertained, involved and quite! This method makes just one serving.
What you will need to have ready for this.
You will need about a half cup of milk. Some people use cream, that’s ok too. But this tastes just fine with milk. You can even go half and half if you want.
About a tablespoon of sugar.
Chocolate syrup or cocoa power or vanilla extract. About a 1/4 teaspoon.
Ice. Fill up your ice trays the day before, or if you forget, just nip out and buy some, it’s cheap.
Rock salt, You can buy this in most shops or stores or you can if you want use your normal table salt.
2 plastic bags. I quart sized and 1 gallon sized. Remember you can improvise with this. It’s just a rough guide.
Some good get on down music that you can dance to or that your kids love.
Ok You’re good to go now.
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.
Now put on some great music and shake those bags, shake them and agitate them and massage them, (be careful not to split them). You can do this for between 10 – 15 minutes. In this time your mixture will have turned into solid ice cream. Magic! Now eat and enjoy!
