- Place the small can inside the large can. Layer ice salt around the small can until full. Put lid on the large can and secure with duct tape. Roll can 10-15 minutes.

Notes
Shake Instead of Roll
- Use resealable plastic freezer bags instead of coffee cans. Use quart bag for the mixture. Double bag. Place inside gallon bag and layer with ice and salt around bag. Double bag. Seal and shake 10 to 15 minutes or until desired consistency.
- Butternut Squash - Instead of fruit add 1 cup butternut squash, baked mashed and cooled, 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon, and 1/2 teaspoon cardamom.
- Chocolate - Use 1/3 cup CNP Chocolate Magic Mix and 1 Tbsp plus 1 tsp all-purpose flour instead of regular CNP Magic Mix.
- Kale mint - Instead of fruit, add 1 cup finely chopped kale (stems removed) and 1/4 teaspoon mint extract.
