Snow Ice Cream Success!

We have tried at least a couple of times to make snow ice cream, but it has never worked until today. Honestly, I don't know which recipe or recipes we used, so I can't compare them. So, I am merely posting this recipe for future reminders to myself! If it helps someone else out, all the better. I goofed and added too much vanilla this first time around, but the kids didn't seem to mind at all. The consistency was actually very good, so overall it was a resounding success.

{More brown than it should be since we added extra vanilla...}


Ingredients:

  • 4 cups snow (clean, of course!)
  • 1 cup milk (We used skim, and it worked surprisingly well.)
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla (not tablespoon, Meg!)

Directions:

  1. Place all ingredients in a large bowl and mix with a spoon for a couple of minutes, until all ingredients are combined. 
  2. Enjoy some fresh ice cream right away! Toppings are optional, but we used sprinkles (Mia) and mini M & Ms (Logan).
