Guess What We're Up To

What do you do on a hot summer day to cool off? Why make something of course! Can you guess by this picture what we made today?




Still need a little help?? It was really yummy....... This little bowl licker thinks so anyway.





Maybe this picture will help.





Good for you. We made homemade ice cream. It was a great way to pass the time and even more fun to eat. The recipe is below. We froze it inside since it would have NEVER gotten hard outside. It probably would have melted on impact!!


We also made some brownies. Walker liked those alot!!



I found this recipe in an old Southern Living dessert cookbook that my mom has had for as long as I can remember.

Ice Cream

6 eggs
2 cups sugar
1 heaping Tbsp flour
2 tsp vanilla
pinch of salt
1 can condensed milk
1 pt half and half
milk

Beat eggs well in electric mixer for 15-20 minutes. Add sugar and flour and beat well. Add vanilla, salt and condensed mild and cream. Fill 6-quart freezer with milk. (I use whole milk).

We enjoyed our afternoon of baking and freezing. It was a good way to cool off!
