Homemade Ice Cream: Quick, Easy, & On the Cheap!

Step 2: The Jar Method

The jar method does take longer than the Ziploc method, but you have less chances of a mess, and you don't need rock salt.

Ingredients:
1. Milk - 1 cup or 240mL - I used Rice Milk; just make sure that if your milk is sweetened, you use less sugar
2. Sugar - 2 tbsp or 30mL - use less if you are using a sweetened milk substitute
3. Vanilla - 1/2 tsp or 2mL
4. Jar
5. Freezer

Step 1
Measure out and pour all ingredients into jar; shake.

Step 2
Place your jar in the freezer. Placing it in between other items will help speed up the process. You'll need to keep it in the freezer at least 3 1/2 hours, taking it out and shaking it at 30-minute intervals.

Step 3
When you take out your ice cream to shake and hear little or no "sloshing", it is ready. Run it under some cool water to loosen up the top.

Step 4
Pour, serve, and consume. =D

I just made this 5 minutes ago. I didn't have any rock salt, but then I remembered, you could use table salt instead. So, I used a little over a 1/4 cup of regular table salt. The ice cream turned out just fine. It was so good Also, I wrapped the bag in a towel cause the bag gets very cold after a few minutes. Thanks for the Satisfaction of my sweet tooth! :-D
