This easy soft serve is made out of cream, sugar and vanilla and the best part is, it is ready to eat in minutes! The chocolate version was my favorite, but try mixing in your favorite candy bar or cookie pieces for a gourmet twist. This simple soft serve ice cream is a perfect, kid friendly summer activity. Children will love shaking the bags, watching the liquid turn into ice cream. Simple, fun, and delicious!

Try using different flavored rice cereals for a variety of "ice cream" flavors!
