I love this cute idea from One Krieger Chick.
I participated with her in the craft competition “So You Think You’re Crafty”.
She is so creative.
With a foot or so of snow in my front yard
I was reminded of the “Snow Ice Cream” my grandmother used to make us.
It’s a fond memory of mine during the winter months.
It’s super duper easy and so yummy.
Combine 2 cups of whole milk or half and half with
1 cup of sugar and 2 tsp. of vanilla.
Stir until the sugar is dissolved and add it to 1 gallon of fresh (clean) snow.
Such an old fashioned delicious treat!
I’ve also seen the following recipe but have never tried it.
One 14 oz. can of sweetened condensed milk
1 tsp. of vanilla
2 quarts of fresh snow
Combine together.
Chocolate syrup can be added to make it chocolate flavored.

Okay, snow cream, huh? The mere thought transports me back to childhood! Using fresh snow sounds like a gamble these days, I must admit. This reminds me of when I attempted a fancy layered dessert for a party once, Slope Unblocked and things went south fast because I didn’t properly account for the different freezing times of each layer. It ended up a melty mess, but everyone laughed (eventually). I’m definitely intrigued by both recipes!
