*** If you do not own an ice cream maker don’t fret! Put your mixture into small, clean coffee cans. Place those cans into larger cans and pack around them with ice cream salt and ice. Duct tape the lids onto the large coffee cans. Have the kids roll the cans back and forth in the drive way for about a ½ hour. Then remove the cans and enjoy!
