The Best Ice Cream Recipe - Complete With a Cardio Workout
My daughter's second grade class had an end of the year barbeque today, and nature graced us with gorgeous sun and minimal wind. The second graders were, well, second graders, lots of whining, screaming and all around good, grubby fingered fun. They did sack races, played volleyball, and had an egg toss - which, I have to admit, was my favorite part since several children (excluding my own) got creamed with cackleberry juice.
The best thing to come out of it was our homemade ice cream. I had heard about this recipe but seeing it in action has really inspired me for future camping trips. Rather then tell you how to make it, let me show you:
And do some shakin'!
Don't shake too hard!
Shake with a friend!
Have your dad do some shakin'!
Yummy goodness in a bag.

Great idea! How was the taste? Did it get solid enough or was it more like a milkshake?

The taste was good and the texture was more like soft serve than regular ice cream. This was probably 'cuz my arms got tired of all the shaking!

Ana and I tried this the other day after seeing it on Sasha's blog (http://www.sashasays.com/2008/05/homemade-ice-cream-in-bag.html). It was yummy and fun! We used whole milk & table salt since that's what we had, and it still turned out great. Ours was more like soft serve too but we probably could have gotten it firmer if we'd shaken it longer. Great pics!!

We did that in Girl Scouts...usually with a small coffee can inside a big one filled with ice. We would sing (naturally because we were Girl Scouts...duh!) and roll it around the circle till the girls got bored. Yummy ice cream.
