Make delicious homemade ice cream in just minutes using this fun and simple method.
Combine the half-and-half, sugar, and vanilla extract in the small resealable bag. Seal the bag tightly.
Ensure the bag is sealed properly to prevent leaks during shaking.
Fill the large resealable bag with ice and rock salt.
The salt lowers the freezing point of the ice, helping the ice cream freeze faster.
Place the small bag inside the large bag and seal the large bag tightly.
Use a towel or gloves to hold the bag as it will get very cold.
Shake the bag vigorously for 10-15 minutes until the mixture thickens into ice cream.
Shake consistently to ensure even freezing of the ice cream mixture.
Remove the small bag from the large bag, wipe off any salt, and open it to enjoy your homemade ice cream.
Serve immediately for the best texture and flavor.
