Tiger kick the can Ice Cream


Recommended Posts

In the Old Tiger Leader Book - Under Big Idea Make your Own - was an ice cream recipe that you made in coffee cans. I remember it was simple and used pudding. Can someone look it up and send me the recipe!

Thanks!!!Kathy in Parkville/Carney MD

Tigers! Our Boy Scout Troop did that event at our August outing. We did not use pudding but typical ice cream ingredients - sugar, milk, vanilla; using a can within a can and lots of ice & salt.

If you really want to use pudding:

INGREDIENTS: empty and clean one pound coffee can with plastic lid empty and clean three pound coffee can with plastic lid duct tape 10 pounds ice 3 cups rock salt, 2 quarts whole milk, 2 cans sweetened condensed milk 1 package (4 oz.) instant vanilla pudding, 1 cup sugar DIRECTIONS: Note -- the above recipe will make three one pound cans of ice cream. 1. Mix pudding with the milk. 2. Add sugar and condensed milk. Mix well. 3. Pour one third liquid mixture into a clean, one pound coffee can. There should be at least one inch space left between top of mixture and top of can. 4. Place lid tightly on one pound can. Seal around edges of can and lid with duct tape. (I use duct tape because it is less affected by condensation. This will also keep any salt water from getting into your ice cream.) 5. Put sealed one pound can inside clean three pound coffee can. 6. Put ice and one cup rock salt around smaller can. 7. Place lid tightly on three pound can. Seal around the edge of can and lid with duct tape. 8. Now comes the fun part. Take turns kicking the can around the yard. Don't play kickball with it ... just kick it around. And try not and kick the lid anymore than necessary. Kicking time will vary with weather and the amount of ice you used. If, for some reason, your ice melts before you have made ice cream ... just add more ice to the can and re-seal.

Along the same lines.... we've done a "Pudding Toss". Place ingredients for making pudding in a ziplock type bag (freezer works best), and then place that bag inside another freezer bag (incase of a blow-out ;)). Have scouts (or a den) stand in a circle and toss the bag around, kind-of hot potato style. With larger circles, usually on a campout over the summer, we have 2 bags going at a time... 1 chocolate and 1 vanilla.
