Original Recipe Yield 1 Serving
 

Ingredients

  • 1 cup half-and-half cream
  • 2 tablespoons white sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh strawberries
  • 4 cups ice cubes
  • 1/4 cup kosher salt

Directions

  1. Combine the half and half, sugar, vanilla, and strawberries in a quart size resealable plastic bag. Press the air out of the bag, seal, and shake bag to combine contents. Place the bag into a gallon sized zip top bag. Add the ice to the gallon bag, press the air out, and seal bag.
  2. Wrap bags in a hand towel. Shake continuously, until the contents of the small bag thickens into soft-serve ice cream, 5 to 10 minutes.
  3. Rinse the small bag quickly under cold water to wash off salt. Lay the ice cream filled baggie on a flat surface. Use a wooden spoon handle to push the ice cream down to the bottom corner of the baggie. Snip off the corner, and squeeze ice cream into a bowl.
