All about Ice Cream| Everything you need to know about Ice Cream

i was told that freezing coke in my ice cream maker creates a really good iceie.

Does anyone know of other things that can be made in my ice cream freezer beside the typical sherbet and sorbet?

Here are some recipes for coke like that:

You can also make slushies (and alcoholic slushy drinks) in them, as well as fudgescicles, etc.
A few recipes for slushies can be found in the Cuisinart manual that can be downloaded from this page:

We bought an ice cream maker from Wally and there was no instructions. I was told that I needed rock salt so I bought that but I don’t know what the heck to do with it! Can’t cook worth a crap and I suck in the kitchen so make the details as plain as possible! LOL!

First, make sure you have the kind of "ice cream maker" that uses rock salt, rather than the electric type that uses a pre-frozen "freezer bowl" that fits into the rest of the machine when you’re ready to make the ice cream.
Here is the Wikipedia article explaining the difference between the types:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ice_cream_maker

If you truly have an ice cream maker that requires rock salt and hand cranking (or I guess some of those are electric for the cranking part), there are some how-to’s in the links of these 2 searches:
http://www.google.com/search?q=how+to+ice+cream+maker+rock+salt
http://www.google.com/search?q=how+to+ice+cream+maker+rock+salt+recipes

If you have the other kind of ice cream maker though (electric), here are some instructions for that type:

You can get more recipes and the actual **manual** for your particular machine online usually too… this page has links for some of the more popular brands:

I found a recipe for ice cream that calls for a cup and a half of white sugar.. I know this is a lot, but the recipe makes 5 quarts of ice cream, so in proportion, is it really a lot? I’m only 13, experience has not yet come to me yet in the area of cooking/baking.

not really. I think it’s an ok amount of sugar.

can’t you use a healthier substitute, like honey?

I saw a recipe once for use in an electric ice cream maker (4 quart) that only included the ingredients of: Milk, sugar vanilla and egg. Please help me with the recipe as other sites want me to use ingredients i dont have. Thank you!

I found many with 4 ingredients (but they don't use eggs)…

***Simple Foodie Vanilla Ice Cream***

milk 3/4 cup
sugar 2/3 cup
heavy cream 1 1/2 cups
vanilla extract 1 tsp to taste

1.In a saucepan heat the milk over medium heat until bubbles begin to form on the edges.
2.Remove from the heat and stir in the sugar. Mix well until the sugar dissolves. Remove to a mixing bowl.
3.Stir in the heavy cream and vanilla.
4.Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
5.Freeze per your ice cream maker instructions.

***Simple Vanilla Ice Cream*** (from Revolution Health)

Ingredients:
1 1/8 cups, Sugar
1 1/2 tablespoons, Vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups, Whole milk
3 cups, Heavy whipping cream

Directions:
1.In a mixing bowl, use a hand mixer on low spead to conbine the milk and granulated sugar until the sugar is dissolved, (about 1 to 2 minutes).
2.Stir in the heavy cream and vanilla.
3.Turn the [Ice cream maker] on
4.Pour the mixture into the freezer bowl and let mix until thickened (about 20 to 25 minutes)
5.The ice cream will have a soft, creamy texture. If a firmer consistency is desired, transfer the ice cream to an airtight container and place in freezer for about 2 hours.
6.Remove from freezer about 15 minutes before serving.

Or you could try this….

3/4 cup sugar
3 cups whole milk
2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Directions
Whisk the eggs in a mixing bowl until light and fluffy, 1 to 2 minutes.

Transfer the mixture to an ice cream maker and freeze following the manufacturer's instructions.
Makes 1 Quart **variation: add 1 cup coarsely chopped Reece's Peanut butter cups, after ice cream stiffens (about 2 minutes before it is done) let it continue processing.

I'm keen on opening shop this summer.

Cold plate freezers are the best as they don't require electricity and keep your cones at the right temperature. But they can be expensive.

The other options are:
- chest freezer (which runs on a generator), and
- dry ice chest (insulated boxes that keep the ice cream cold)

If you're on a budget, go for a chest freezer. I have it in my own truck and it does a good job.
