How to Make Ice Cream

Have you ever tried making ice cream? Way back high school, our class managed to savor our home-made ice cream. Yum! All you need to have with you are the following:

• 1/2 cup milk
• 1 tablespoon of sugar
• 1/4 teaspoon of vanilla extract, chocolate syrup, or cocoa powder
• 2 quarts of ice
• rock salt

Here are five easy steps on how to make ice cream:

1. Mix sugar, milk or half & half, and flavoring in a bowl, then seal it in a quart-sized plastic bag.
2. Take roughly two quarts of ice (crushed ice is recommended), and place it into the gallon-sized bag with rock salt. Ideally, the gallon bag will be roughly half full with the ice and salt mixture. 
3. Place the sealed quart-sized bag with the ingredients into the gallon-sized bag. Make sure the bags stay sealed. Do not allow the contents to mix at any time. If the bags don't seal sufficiently, use duct tape to seal the top of both bags to ensure they don't open during shaking.
4. Agitate the mixture gently. Massage and shake the bag for about 10 to 15 minutes. 
5. Transfer into a plastic container and allow it to freeze inside your freezer.
6. Enjoy! This is the best stepp in making ice cream - eating! :)
