Celebrate Ice Cream- Yummy!!!
July 18, 2007 8:08 pm Holiday, Inspire You Children, SpecialsJuly is Ice Cream Month, so let’s celebrate!
Make your own homemade ice cream … in a coffee can! Here’s the recipe I found at about.com
INGREDIENTS:
* 1 1-pound coffee can with lid
* 1 3-pound coffee can with lid
* 1 pint of half and half (milk can be used instead)
* 1 egg, beaten (optional)
* 1/2 cup sugar
* 1 teaspoon vanilla, 2 tablespoons of chocolate syrup, or 1/4 cup of strawberries
PREPARATION:
Add all of the above ingredients to the 1 pound coffee can; mix well. Put the lid on the coffee can and secure with duct tape. Place the 1 pound coffee can into the 3 pound coffee can. Surround with crushed ice and rock salt and place the lid onto the 3 pound coffee can.
Have your kids sit on the ground and roll back and forth 3 to 4 feet apart. Roll for 8 to 10 minutes. (The kids can kick the can back and forth as well.)
Check to see if the ice cream is hard; if it isn’t, replace the lid, add more ice and rock salt. Roll for another 8 mins.
Remove the lid to the 1 pound can and serve in bowls.
Serves 4-6 people.
