With July being considered the hottest month of the year and especially with the way the season has been so far, finding ways to beat the heat is necessary to get through the dog days of summer. A trip to a local ice cream shop is a fun family activity out in the community that will keep you cool with the rising temperatures. Take a look at this ranking of Columbia ice cream shops to find a parlor that suits your family’s idea of fun!
If you’d prefer a DIY method instead of traveling to the ice cream shop, making your own ice cream is a fun way to experiment with different techniques and flavors. No ice cream machine required!
I was interested in trying something new with my family this summer. So, with a little research, I stumbled upon a simple way to create ice cream using only two ingredients. This particular recipe calls for condensed milk and heavy cream. I learned that in regular ice cream preparation, there is a balance that needs to be met between the ingredients in order for the ice cream to be made successfully. In the two-ingredient method, steps can be skipped due to the sweetness of the condensed milk and the process of whisking the heavy cream. This ‘experiment’ was a fun and yummy project for my family! My 6-year-old loved watching the heavy cream ‘fluff’ and he enjoyed mixing the ingredients. If you are looking for something fun to do with your family — I recommend giving this a try!
