Instructions

  1. Pour 1 cup heavy cream, 1 cup half and half, 1/2 cup granulated sugar, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract into a gallon-sized resealable plastic bag. Seal well. Squish it around to combine until the sugar is dissolved.
  2. Place 2 cups ice cubes and 1/2 cup salt into another gallon-sized resealable plastic bag.
  3. Place the bag with the ice cream mixture into the bag with the ice. Seal the larger bag.
  4. Shake until mixture freezes, about 5 to 7 minutes.

Notes

  • While regular table salt can be used, ice cream salt will lower the temperature of your ice cream more quickly which means it freezes faster. Ice cream salt can be hard to find, but you can order it online, or sometimes you can pick it up in supermarkets during the summer months. 
  • If your ice cream isn't freezing, add more ice and salt to keep the transfer of energy flowing.
