Mason Jar Vanilla Ice Cream Recipe
1 Pint Size Glass Mason Jar
1 Mason Jar Ring and Seal
1 Cup Heavy Cream
3/4 tsp. Pure Vanilla Extract
1 1/2 Tbsp. Granulated Sugar
Pinch of Salt
Place all 4 ingredients into a clean glass pint-size mason jar. Place the seal and ring on top. Shake the jar up and down for 4 minutes or until the liquid doubles in size. Place the glass mason jar into the freezer for 3-4 hours. Remove and enjoy!
Note: My grandchildren like to toss sprinkles on the top right before serving. I don’t recommend using immitation vanilla. It has a much better taste when you use the REAL thing! Also, I like a soft-serve consistency, so I left mine sit out for 15 minutes to soften-up. If you like a regular ice cream consistency, spoon it out of the jar and into a bowl to enjoy right away.
