Every year at day camp, we have an outdoor cooking station.\u00a0 We’ve done sous vide omelettes, hamburger foil packets, hash browns, and of course, ice cream in a bag.<\/p>\n

For this yummy treat, you will need:
\nSprinkles
\nA one gallon plastic bag
\n1\/4 cup of rock salt
\nA quart ziplock freezer or storage bag
\n1\/2 teaspoon of vanilla
\n2 tablespoons of sugar
\n1 cup of half-n-half (almond, oat, or soy based unsweetened creamer works too)
\n3 cups of ice<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Pour the sugar, vanilla, and half-n-half into the the quart bag.<\/li>\n
  2. Add anything else you want in your ice cream (see the variations below<\/a>).<\/li>\n
  3. Seal the quart bag, making sure to squeeze out as much air as possible and making sure it is well sealed.<\/strong><\/li>\n
  4. Gently massage the bag to mix the ingredients.<\/li>\n
  5. Pour the ice and rock salt into the gallon bag.<\/li>\n
  6. Place the quart bag inside the gallon bag.\u00a0 Squeeze as much air as possible out of the gallon bag and seal it.<\/li>\n
  7. Shake the bag and gently bounce it on a counter or table for 15 minutes or until the ice cream is thick and ready to eat.\u00a0 The more you mix it, the creamier your final ice cream will be.\u00a0 If your fingers get too cold, put a small towel around your bag or wear mittens.<\/li>\n
  8. When ready to eat, wipe off the outside of the quart bag before opening it.\u00a0 This will remove most of the salt water so it doesn’t get into your ice cream.<\/li>\n
  9. Spoon your ice cream into a bowl and add the sprinkles!<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
