    Yummmm!! I used rice milk and used honey, it was FANTASTIC. In my opinion, it taste even better than ice cream. However....

    • I couldn't put it in a bag because it keps spilling from it mid-shake (and YES, I DID close it right). I used a container instead and sealed it with a bunch of rubber bands for saftey.
    • I had to use two big ziplock bags, because the salt water kept coming out of small holes in the first bag.
    • The first time I did it for four minutes, it didn't freeze all the way, but after another eight it was fine.

    But overall, this was a great idea.

    Oh my goodness!!!!! I just tried this and it was fantastic! I also used unsweetened almond milk, but I added a scoop of chocolate protein powder, some instant coffee, and a bit of splenda. I lost some patience, so it came out not quite as thick as ice cream, more like a really thick frappuccino, which was still really good! It came out to 180 calories, 6 grams of fat, and 27 grams of protein. Maybe a little high in fat, but I'm almost always under on my fat, so no biggie. Next time I think I'll try 1.25 -1.5 scoops of protein to make it a bit more chocolate-y. Definitely worth trying!!!!!

    After you make a serving, do you think the ice/salt will hold up well enough to freeze another serving? I think if I put two cups of almond milk in the bag it will take too long to shake. Or will I have to start from scratch with new ice and salt?

    I tried this idea today but not with almond milk. I wanted something a bit more rich with more protein.

    Blended together the following ingredients:
    1/2 cup Fage 0% plain yogurt
    2 tbsp PB2
    1/2 banana
    1/4 cup sugar-free syrup
    dash of vanilla
    dash of cinnamon
    ... shook in the ice bag per OP's instructions... Voila! Frozen Yogurt!!!

    I'm going to bump this so I can try this a little later. I love ice cream. It is my weakness for sure. Right now I have some coconut milk. I hope it is still good, because I sure want to try it.

    Throw in a little Nutella and some nuts* for a not so chunky monkey?

    *Stir the nuts in after freezing, but before it sets hard.

    Here's a recipe for a non-fat, low-cal tasty ice cream treat.

    Fill a large zip lock bag with ice and add a 1/2 cup of table salt. The salt is to make the ice super cold and speed freezing. It does not touch the ice cream.
    In a measuring cup, pour 1 cup of almond milk (I like PureAlmond Unsweetened only 35 calories for 1 cup)
    1/2 tsp vanilla
    2 tbsp of a natural or artificial sweetner (Splenda, Truvia, honey, etc..).
    Mix well and pour liquid into a smaller zip lock bag and seal it tight.
    Place the small bag inside the larger bag, seal and then shake vigorously for 4 to 5 minutes until the mixture hardens.
    Tip: use oven mits to keep your hangs from getting too cold as you shake the bag.
    Also, consider adding cinnamon, cocoa or instant coffee to the mixture for variety. Enjoy!
    * Add a scoop of vanilla protein and you its an awesome meal replacement!

    It definitely curbs any ice cream cravings.

    bump!

    I don't see why it wouldn't. I wouldn't do 2 cups at once.
