Beltway Bambinos

Last week we started our new blog post series; ‘fun from home’ with slime making. Hopefully your Bambinos tried it and enjoyed making it at home with the easy recipe. This week we are giving you a recipe for making ice cream as the temperatures heat up tomorrow, we thought it’d be a perfect treat to make AND eat!

Supplies needed:

1. Mason jar with lid {we used a Ziploc bag and it turned out}
2. 1 cup heavy cream
3. 1 ½ tablespoons granulated sugar
4. 1 ½ teaspoons vanilla extract
5. A pinch of salt
6. Optional: add in mini-chips or a teaspoon of peanut butter or a teaspoon of jam to add a flavor!

Instructions:

1. Pour the cream, sugar, vanilla and salt into the jar, and screw on the lid tightly.

2. Shake vigorously {this was the fun part– each family member did a dance for a minute or ran around the house shaking}, until it thickens and almost doubles in size, which should take about 5 minutes.

3. Time to add in the toppings or flavors if you want. Give it another quick shake.

4. Freeze for at least 3 hours. At first it is a bit icy but once it defrosts for a few minutes it will be creamy.
