Day 260: Zip Lock Ice Cream

I didn't realize I would start such a frenzy, but I've had so many people ask about ziplock ice cream that I figured I better just post the recipe!  :)

What you need:
1 cup Milk (I used 3/4 c evaporated milk and 1/4 c water.  Don't know if non-dairy will work.)
2 Tablespoons sugar
1/2 teaspoon Vanilla (for chocolate, leave off vanilla and add enough chocolate syrup to make it look like your favorite chocolate milk)
1/2 cup salt
Lots of ice
1 Quart size zip lock freezer bag
2 Gallon size zip lock freezer bags

Steps
1. Mix milk, sugar and flavor in a glass until sugar is dissolved.
2.  Pour into quart size freezer bag and seal it up.
3.  Put quart size bag of goodness in the gallon size bag.  Fill gallon size bag half way with ice and salt.
4.  Seal the gallon size bag and then put it in the last gallon bag.  Seal this bag to prevent leakage.
5.  You know the drill . . . It's shake and don't bake!  Five to ten minutes is awesome.  Keep on shaking until you have the desired consistency.  Five minutes should be a soft serve where as ten would be scoopable, if you have a really little scoop.

It does get pretty cold, so little ones might need mittens, or towels or something.  It's awesome on a hot day to cool off as you're making it and then you get to eat it after you've already burned off the calories!  YAY!  :)
