We made ice cream!

Today we worked together to make delicious vanilla ice cream. We learned how to separate eggs, use the electric beater and fold the ingredients together. We've left it overnight in the staffroom freezer so we can have a special treat for morning tea tomorrow...YUM!!!

Here's the recipe if you'd like to try and make some at home:

ICE CREAM

Ingredients:

4 eggs separated

½ cup caster sugar

300ml cream

1 teaspoon vanilla essence

Method:

1.        Beat the egg whites until stiff.

2.        Add half the sugar and beat   until glossy.

3.        In another bowl, beat egg yolks with the remaining sugar until thick.

4.        Add vanilla and fold into egg whites.

5.        Whip cream until it begins to thicken and fold into egg mixture.

6.        Add flavours of your choice e.g. chocolate chips

7.        Pour into a shallow container and freeze (at least 2 hours).

The result ... DELICIOUS!
