Vanilla Ice Cream

This is a very simple recipe.

Whole milk can be used instead of the 2% and heavy cream but the ice cream won't be quite as creamy.

2 cups 2% milk or whole milk
2 cups heavy cream or whole milk
1 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

In a bowl stir together the ingredients. Pour into the ice cream maker and freeze according to the ice cream maker instructions. Mix in the ice cream maker for about 30 to 40 minutes or until ice cream has thickened. Scoop ice cream into containers and allow to harden for at least 2 hours.
