Steps:
- For the base ice cream: Stir the milk, sugar and vanilla together in a medium bowl. Pour 1/2 cup of the mixture into a sandwich-size resealable plastic bag. Make vanilla ice cream or add in your desired flavors to make mint chocolate chip, chocolate or strawberry ice cream. Tightly seal the bag. Put that bag into another sandwich-size resealable plastic bag and tightly seal. Repeat with the remaining batter and desired flavors.
- Place the ice and the salt into a 4-quart food storage container with a lid. Put the filled bags into the container and secure the lid. Shake the container until the mixture is frozen and resembles ice cream, about 5 minutes. Remove the bags with the ice cream in it from the outer bag and snip a large piece off one corner of each bag. Pipe the ice cream into small bowls.

Steps:
- Pour 1 cup of half and half into a small ziploc bag.
- Add 1.5 teaspoons of vanilla extract and 1 tablespoon of sugar.
- Seal the bag firmly and get any excess air out.
- In the larger ziploc bag, fill it about 1/2 way with ice. Add 1/4 cup of salt.
- Then add your small bag and fill with extra ice on top. Seal the large bag.
- Get gloves for shaking and shake for 6 minutes. *Gloves are needed since the salt makes the ice extra cold.
- Take the small bag out of the large bag and rinse the outside of the small bag with cold water. Make sure to rinse out the top part of the bag also (above the seal).
- Once done rinsing, carefully open the small bag to not get any remaining salt from the outside of the bag inside the bag.
- The ice cream will be a little icy looking to start. Use a spoon to mix it around and soften it up a bit. Scoop out and enjoy!

Tips:
- Choose fresh, ripe fruit: The quality of your fruit will greatly impact the taste of your ice cream. Choose fruit that is in season and is free of blemishes.
- Use a sturdy freezer bag: You'll be shaking the bag vigorously, so make sure it's strong enough to withstand the abuse. A gallon-sized bag is a good option.
- Don't overfill the bag: You need to leave enough room for the ice cream to expand as it freezes. Fill the bag no more than halfway.
- Use a good ratio of ice to salt: This will help to lower the temperature of the ice cream and freeze it quickly. A good ratio is 2 parts ice to 1 part salt.
- Shake the bag vigorously: The more you shake the bag, the faster the ice cream will freeze. Shake the bag for at least 15 minutes, or until the ice cream is firm.
- Enjoy your ice cream immediately: Homemade ice cream is best enjoyed fresh. It will start to melt quickly, so don't let it sit out for too long.
Conclusion:
Making homemade ice cream in a baggie is a fun and easy way to enjoy a delicious treat. With just a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a variety of delicious ice cream flavors. So get creative and experiment with different fruits and flavors. The possibilities are endless!
