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.

- 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!

Steps:
- Put milk, sugar and vanilla in pint or quart-sized Ziplock bag and seal well.
- Fill a gallon sized Ziplock bag with ice and add the 8 tablespoons rock salt.
- Add the small milk-Ziplock bag.
- Seal well and squish.
Tips:
- Choose the right ingredients: Use whole milk or heavy cream for a richer ice cream. You can also use a combination of milk and cream. Avoid using low-fat or skim milk, as they will not produce a creamy ice cream.
- Chill your ingredients: Before you start making the ice cream, chill the milk, cream, and sugar in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes. This will help the ice cream freeze more quickly.
- Use a good quality ice cream maker: If you have an ice cream maker, use it to churn the ice cream. This will give you the best results. If you don't have an ice cream maker, you can still make ice cream in a bag. Just be prepared to put in a little more work.
- Freeze the ice cream for at least 4 hours: Once the ice cream is churned, transfer it to a freezer-safe container and freeze it for at least 4 hours before serving. This will allow the ice cream to firm up and develop its full flavor.
- Serve the ice cream with your favorite toppings: Ice cream is a delicious dessert on its own, but it's even better with toppings. Some popular toppings include chocolate chips, sprinkles, fruit, and whipped cream.
Conclusion:
Making ice cream in a bag is a fun and easy way to enjoy a delicious frozen treat. With just a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a variety of delicious ice cream flavors. So next time you're in the mood for something sweet, give ice cream in a bag a try.
