Ice Cream (Rolled in a Can)

1 cup whole milk
 1 cup heavy whipping cream
 1/2 cup sugar
 1/2 tsp vanilla
 Pinch of salt 
Rock Salt (Purchase at hardware store) 
Crushed ice cubes 
Metal cans (1) small 12 oz and (1) Big 39 oz can with tight fitting lid 

Optional ingredients:
1/2 cup chopped fruit or whole berries 
1/4 cup chopped nuts 
Crushed candy bars 

Pour milk and cream into large bowl. Stir. Sprinkle sugar into mixture, add salt and vanilla, and stir. Add optional fruits, nuts, or crushed candy. Pour batter into the small coffee can, leave approximately 3 inches or more between batter and top of the can. Snap lid on can. You may wish to wrap tape around it for a tight seal. Place small can inside of large can and sprinkle about one and a half cups chopped ice around the small can. Add a couple hand fulls of rock salt. Fill, alternating more ice and rock salt. Place the lid on the large can and “ROLL AWAY”- pushing the can between two people for about 20 minutes. Best when eaten immediately.
