We made our own Ice cream without an ice cream maker, and with a lot less sugar.  I first saw this idea at Cub Scout Day Camp the other day.  Then I tried it with my kids at home last night.  We took

• 1/2 Cup milk
• 1 tsp sugar
• 1/2 tsp vanilla

Combined them in a quart size sealable bag.  Then we used a 1 gallon bag filled with Ice and Rock salt (about 1/2 C).  We put the smaller bag into the bag with ice and shook it up.  It only took about 5-7 minutes for the “ice cream” to get creamy and frosty.  With only 4 grams of sugar, as opposed to 28 grams, each kid got their own bag of ice cream to eat.  What a fabulous summer activity this was.  Plus the fat went from 11 grams to 1.5 grams (we use 1% milk). Then cereal boy tried chocolate milk, and that worked well too!
