A few months ago Victoria published an article about how to make icecream in a ziplock bag. Today I finally tried the recipe and it turned out awesome! I have allergies to dairy so I made a batch with rice milk and another with almond milk. They both turned out perfect and delicious.
Check out her article she has yummy pictures and a great story too, just copy and paste...

How to make Ice cream in a bag: (it's so easy!)
1. In a large ziplock bag (gallon size) fill half way with ice and 6 tablespoons of rock salt (or regular salt). Seal.

2. In a smaller ziplock bag put a tablespoon sugar, 1/2 cup milk and a 1/4 teaspoon vanilla. Seal.

3. Place smaller bag inside larger bag and shake, shake, shake! Ours took a little longer then five minutes for our ice cream to firm. Spoon out into a dish and enjoy!

Be careful to not get any salt on your ice cream when taking it out of the bag!
Have fun

I'm going to get some rock salt tomorrow and try this with my daughter. Sounds neat!
Marianne R. Jun 12, 2008, 9:56pm EDT
Passing through with triple points for you!

As Arte Johnson used to say on Laugh-In - "Verrrrry interesting."

I never knew this. I don't have room in my freezer for one of those old ice cream makers...or even a half gallon of ice cream. But if I can make a small batch at a time, that would be great for me. (I wouldn't be tempted to eat more that way.) I've got everything needed and I'll use table salt instead of rock. I might even throw in some cherry juice or strawberries to make different flavors.

Hmmm, I would have thought it would take more ingredients than just those three, I will have to give it a try. First I will have to get some rock salt though.
Adelaide M. Jun 12, 2008, 10:13pm EDT
Cool. Sounds easy enough. Thanks!
Renu Gera R. Jun 12, 2008, 10:24pm EDT
This is great. Now me and my daughters are going to make it everyday. A great fun for them. They will love to shake.
Jennifer F. Jun 12, 2008, 10:24pm EDT

My Mom used to have one of those ice cream makers. I remember the salt and the ice in the outer container. That ice cream was really good. I will try to remember this for when my kids are bored and making me crazy. Since today was my son's last day at school, that is like RIGHT NOW~~~~AHHHHHH
Dorine H. Jun 12, 2008, 10:55pm EDT
