Ice Cream In A Bag

2 Tbsp. sugar
1 cup half and half (milk is okay too, but the creamier the better)
1/2 tsp. vanilla
6 Tbsp. rock salt
1 pint sized ziploc bag
1 gallon sized ziploc bag

Fill gallon bag half full with ice. Add rock salt and seal. Pour sugar, half and half, and vanilla into pint sized bag and seal. Place pint sized bag into gallon sized bag and seal. Shake for 5-7 minutes. Open small bag and enjoy!

Chocolate Spoons

1 cup milk chocolate chips
1-2 Tbsp. peanut butter
12 plastic spoons

Line a cookie sheet with wax paper. In a microwave safe dish (a liquid measuring cup works best), heat chips and peanut butter on 50% power until chips melt. Stir. Dip spoons into chocolate mixture and place wax paper. Chill until spoons harden.
**Variations: Have kids decorate spoons with sprinkles, colored sugars, mini-candies, etc. During the hoildays, sprinkle spoons with crushed peppermint candy.
