Materials:
Proccess:
Safety Hazard:
Hot plate safety- Keep hot plate in the middle of the table, make sure everyone around you knows that hot plate is in use, stay around hot plate at all times, and when done using put a sticky note saying “Caution, Hot.”
Wear gloves, goggles, and limit skin exposure, so none of the hot mixture burns skin.
Clean Up:
Put away all materials, and wash everything in the sink.
Documentation:
We will be taking pictures throughout the entire process.
Looking Back:
The ice cream was so much fun to make, and it was also very good. The experiment turned out really good. I worked with Lydia, Morgan, and Genevie. We all contributed and it turned out amazing. We learned that we could've also made ice cream with plastic bags and ice as an alternative. When we were making the ice cream, I thought the ice cream would turn out horrid and disgusting, but when I tried it I was amazed by how delicious it turned out. Something that I would change about the project is to probably have bought all the ingredients a day before, so we could've been well prepared. Overall, the ice cream looked great and tasted great!
Looking Beyond:
There is so much chemistry in everyday things that you eat or even do. In ice cream there is also a lot of chemistry. Ice cream is an emulsion—a combination of two liquids that don't normally mix together. Instead, one of the liquids is dispersed throughout the other. In ice cream, liquid particles of fat (fat globules) are spread throughout a mixture of water, sugar, and ice, along with air bubbles. Also while making ice cream it is important to follow measurements, or else your ice cream may turn out way to creamy or way too liquid.
Looking Inward:
I think the project turned out very successful and that we got desirable results. I think we go desirable results because we followed instructions, and we were well prepared by doing our research. It was also very nice to have helpful partners, because we were all able to contribute to the project by bringing something in that we used.
Looking Outward:
While working on this project and doing the experiment I was able to work with Lydia, Morgan, and Genevie. I have worked with Lydia for all of my projects so far. This time we both decided to work with Morgan and Genevie. It was really fun and helpful to work in larger group, because I was bale to learn from more people. I think everyone in the group contributed really well, because everyone brought some materials for the ice cream. I contributed to the project by bring oreos for the ice cream.
Looking Forward:
The experiment was really fun and good.I was really surprised how the ice cream turned out, and a lot of people enjoyed it as well. Also I would probably try to get all of the ingredients for the project a day before, so that way there wouldn't be any confusion. If I were to do this project again, I would probably work with the same people because it was fun and we all collaborated really well. A way to continue on the experiment would be to make ice cream in a plastic bag, and test the difference.
Take Aways:
Making ice cream has to be one of my favorite projects that we have done so far this year. It was just so much fun and I felt like I was able to contribute and help others. I learned a lot by doing this project especially from my classmates.For the project we mixed together heavy cream, milk, oreos, sugar, vanilla extract and we just put the ingredients into the ice cream maker. It was just an awesome project and many people enjoyed it.

Materials:
- 2 cups heavy cream - Morgan
- 1 cup whole milk - Lydia
- 2/3 cup sugar - Lydia
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract - Morgan
- 20 chocolate sandwich cookies - Savreen
- Whisk - Lydia
- Bowls - Savreen
- Spoons - Here already
Proccess:
- Combine cream, milk, sugar and vanilla in a saucepan and heat until the sugar is completely dissolved.
- Pour into a bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Chill in the refrigerator or in an ice bath until completely cool.
- Place the chocolate sandwich cookies into a gallon size plastic bag. Using a rolling pin or a rubber mallet, break up the cookies being sure to leave some larger pieces. Put in freezer.
- Freeze in an ice cream maker according to the manufacturer’s instructions. When the ice cream is nearly finished freezing, pour the frozen cookie pieces into the machine, and allow to mix thoroughly. (You will still have to stir it up a bit after the machine is done.) Put in freezer.
