Homemade ice cream without the ice cream maker. You'll have loads of fun making this ice cream with the kids. Simply help them fill the plastic bag with cream and strawberries, then let them shake it till they've got smooth creamy ice cream!
Combine the cream, sugar, vanilla and strawberries in a litre size resealable plastic bag. Press the air out of the bag, seal and shake bag to combine contents. Place the bag into a larger sized resealable plastic bag. Add the ice and salt to the larger bag, press the air out, and seal bag.
2.
Wrap bags in a tea towel. Shake continuously, until the contents of the small bag thicken into soft 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.

Try other mix-ins too such as crushed chocolate, chopped fudge or honeycomb.
I was a bit skeptical but didn't want to disappoint my neice when I had already mentioned trying to make it! It really does work! Used raspberries - just a personal preference but will try it with a chopped up Crunchie.
I just started growing strawberries this year and the amounts are rather modest so this is a perfect recipe because you only need 4 (!) tablespoons. Quick, easy and delicious for those spontaneous ice-cream cravings
