Antarctica & Ice Cream

This week we are in Antarctica! And to celebrate that continent, we made the yummiest, coldest thing we could think of... ICE CREAM!

Rahama "churning" her ice cream!

Here's the recipe if you want to try it at home...

Ingredients:

• Measuring cups & spoons
• 2 oz. milk, cream, or half & half
• Vanilla extract or chocolate syrup
• 1 tsp. sugar
• Ice
• Salt
  
• Sandwich size freezer bag and large size freezer bag
• Newspaper or towel to help "churning"

In the smaller bag, add the milk (or cream or half & half) and a dash of vanilla (or 1/2 teaspoon of chocolate syrup). Seal the bag and "squish" and shake it to mix things up.

Now fill the larger plastic bag half full of ice and add a generous portion of salt.

Make sure your small bag is completely sealed and place it in the larger bag filled with ice and salt. Seal the larger bag.

Wrap your large bag with newspaper or towels. Shake and "churn"! Check every few minutes to see if ice cream has frozen.

When its frozen take it out of the bag and EAT!
