Hot summer days are great for enjoying some cold ice cream, but there's is nothing better than ice cream you make yourself. Best of all, there are no mystery ingredients.
If you are lucky enough to have access to an old-fashioned, hand-cranked ice cream maker, it is a great activity for the kids. They will all be excited to take a turn cranking the handle, and since it will take 20-30 minutes for the ice cream to solidify, you should be able to give all the kids a chance.
To make the ice cream, you will need:
* 1/2 half gallon Half & Half
* one 14oz can sweetened condensed milk
* two tablespoons vanilla extract
* coarse salt
* lots of chopped ice
Place the wet ingredients into the ice cream canister and seal it up. Place the canister into the mixing tub. Fill the tub with ice, occasionally adding the salt to the ice. Crank the ice cream for 20-30 minutes or until the ice cream reaches the desired consistency.
