How to Make Ice Cream In A Baggie

  1. Place one quart-sized ziploc bag inside another quart-sized ziploc bag.
  2. In the inner bag, combine 1 cup whole milk, 1 cup heavy cream, ¾ cup granulated sugar, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  3. Seal the inner bag tightly, removing as much air as possible. Then, seal the outer bag tightly.
  4. Add 4 cups of ice and 1 cup of rock salt to the outer ziploc bag. Place the sealed inner bag inside.
  5. Seal the outer bag completely, ensuring no ice or salt can escape.
  6. Shake and vigorously toss the outer bag for 5-10 minutes, or until the ice cream reaches your desired consistency. (Consider using gloves if your hands get too cold!)
  7. Carefully open the outer bag and remove the inner bag. Enjoy your homemade ice cream immediately!
