Pioneer Woman PWICMX8SLTCRM Individual 8 oz. Salted Caramel Ice Cream Mix Packet

I was interested in an activity to have fun with the grandkids (7-13). This kit looked interesting. I have an ice cream maker that is electric and has a tall bowl inside a bucket. You add layers and salt and ice around the bowl then add ice cream mix to the bowl and in 30 minutes ice cream "Happens" I tried the Pioneer Woman kit which came with 8 packets of ice cream mix and a bag of salt. You just add cream and or milk to the powdered mix. The 4 flavors 2 packets of each to include Birthday Cake, Salted Caramel, Toffee Caramel and Mint Chocolate Chip. We had the grandkids over and I said who wants to make fresh ice cream! Instantly the iPhones and iPads were dropped and they came running. It was refreshing. We decided to make the Birthday cake and Toffee Carmel flavors. This is where the creative juices started. They decided they wanted cherries in the birthday cake and sliced almonds in the Toffee Carmel. No problem. Maraschino cherries and sliced almonds were in grandma's baking cupboard. We followed the directions and in 45 minutes we had the first flavor of now "Cherry" Birthday Cake. The ice cream was so smooth, luscious and flavorful with a custard consistency. We put it in the freezer to get it more firm and went on to the next flavor. The now Almond Toffee Carmel. It was equally as flavorful, creamy and so rich. Better then any store bought ice cream. We had such a good time and had an afternoon without phones and iPads. Next week we are making Mint Chocolate Chip and Salted Caramel with chopped peanuts. I highly suggest you try this excellent product and this delicious activity that everyone can participate in and enjoy!
