[Also: Inb4tl;dr] So I have been craving ice cream. CRAVING. SERIOUSLY. Ever since... I'm not sure who here put up those pictures of sea salt ice cream, then I got out for summer a day later, and it was like, HELLO, ICE CREAM. We have yogurt here, but... Yogurt isn't ice cream. C'mon. So I found out today that you can make ice cream in a plastic bag, and I figured, HELL YES. Right? So this chronicles my adventure in making ice cream. Enjoy it. I didn't. ============== Their Recipe: Two plastic bags, one quart size and one gallon size 1/2 Cup Reduced Fat Milk 2 Tbsp. Sugar 1/2 Tsp. Vanilla Extract Two trays of ice cubes 6 Tbsp. salt ------------------------------- 1. Put Sugar, milk, and extract into quart sized bag 2. Put salt and ice into gallon sized bag 3. Put quart sized bag into gallon sized bag 4. Shake for ten minutes, remove quart sized bag, and voila. THEIR RESULT: Spoiler DELICIOUS HOMEMADE ICE CREAM. =============================== My Recipe: Two plastic bags, one quart and one gallon size. 1/2 Cup Disgusting-looking table cream because we are literally out of milk that hasn't expired. Three plastic spoonfuls of incredibly chunky sugar followed by another two spoonfuls of Splenda because the sugar was too... chunky What I hope was about a teaspoon of vanilla. I hope. I used a plastic spoon. A shitload of ice cubes A shitload of salt ------------------------------- 1. Put the gross table cream, sugary substances, and vanilla overload into quart-sized bag 2. Dump what you hope is about the right amount of ice and salt into the gallon-sized bag 3. Put the quart-sized bag and the gallon-sized bag and shake for ten minutes while freezing my hands off and trying to use a random shirt I found in my room to keep them warm 4. Attempt to eat ice cream. MY RESULT: Spoiler SEMI-FROZEN TABLE CREAM ... Spoiler Life sucks.
We did this in Chemistry. It was about 40 degrees out and we had to go outside to shake the EQUALLY AS FREEZING bag. Mine got a hole in it and salt water sprayed all over me while my friends laughed and ran away. In the end I couldn't even eat it because I'm lactose intolerant and I only eat ice cream when I'm home doing nothing. >:| So yeah, lol, it might be easier to just take a trip and buy ice cream. Though it doesn't seem as though you're exactly a... master chef. xD
