Best Camping Made Easy Tin Can Ice Cream Recipes

CAMPING MADE EASY: TIN CAN ICE CREAM

Steps:

• You will need:.
• 1 - 1 pound coffee can with plastic lid (label removed and washed).
• 1 - 3 pound coffee can with plastic lid (label removed and washed).
• cling wrap.
• Preparation:.
• In smaller coffee can thoroughly combine the first 5 ingredients. Place a piece of cling wrap over the top of the can and securely add the plastic lid.
• Place the small can inside the large can.
• Fill around small can half way up with crushed ice, then add half of the rock salt (approx 1/8 cup). Fill almost to the top with more crushed ice and add the remaining 1/8 cup rock salt. Leave about 3/4" space at the top of can. Cover the large can with cling wrap and securely place the plastic lid on it, also.
• Have 2 children sit across from one another at the picnic table (opposite ends), and roll the can between them, at a fast pace. (Just be sure they don't roll it crazily and it flies off the table).
• After 10 minutes of rolling, open the large can, but DO NOT remove the small can. Open the small can and give it a stir. Close both cans back up and continue another 10 minutes of vigorous rolling. Again, open the large can leaving the small one in place and stir. Seal them both back up and roll for 10 minutes longer and the ice cream will be done. Sometimes the ice cream is firm enough to eat at the 20 minute mark, so it is your choice when to serve it.
• Enjoy this fun activity and delicious snack!

TIN ROOF ICE CREAM

Steps:

• Warm the milk, sugar, salt and 1/2 cup (125 ml) of the cream in a medium saucepan. With a sharp paring knife, scrape the flavorful seeds from the vanilla bean and add them, along with the pod, to the hot milk mixture. Cover, remove from the heat, and let steep at room temperature for 30 minutes.
• Rewarm the vanilla-infused mixture. Pour the remaining 1 cup (250 ml) cream into a large bowl and set a mesh strainer on top. In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the egg yolks. Slowly pour the warm mixture into the egg yolks, whisking constantly, then scrape the warmed egg yolks back into the saucepan.
• Stir the mixture constantly over medium heat with a heatproof spatula, scraping the bottom as you stir, until the mixture thickens and coats the spatula. Pour the custard through the strainer and stir it into the cream to cool. Remove the vanilla bean, wipe it clean of any egg bits, and add it back to the custard. Stir in the vanilla and stir until cool over an ice bath. Chill thoroughly in the refrigerator.
• When ready to churn the ice cream, remove the vanilla bean (it can be rinsed and reused). Freeze the ice cream in your ice cream maker according to the manufacturer's instructions. While the ice cream is freezing, chop the peanuts into bite-sized pieces.
• Fold the peanut pieces into the frozen ice cream as you remove it from the machine, and layer it with Fudge Ripple.
