When life gives you snow, make snow ice cream!!

There are sweet possibilities almost everywhere you look these days.

Snow, snow, snow
Very sweet, indeed!

Not so much to play in, but sweet to eat!


Growing up I remember making snow ice cream every year. My brother or I would go out in the snow and retrieve a big old bowl of fresh clean snow and bring it inside for my mom to whip up into delicious ice cream. Such yummy memories!

So yesterday, considering all the snow we have been blessed with, we made a couple of batches and it was soooo tasty. I’m not sure how my mom made it all those years ago, but here is how we did it.

SNOW ICE CREAM

1 can sweetened condensed milk {I used fat free}
1/4 cup milk {more or less as needed}
2 tsp vanilla
Big old bowl of clean, fresh snow {at least 1 gallon}

In a big bowl add the sweetened condensed milk, regular milk,  vanilla and mix well. Add the snow a bit at a time and stir well. Keep adding snow until it is a good ice cream consistency.

Dish up and enjoy!
Especially tasty with a little chocolate syrup on top :) 

Extras will keep in the freezer {if you possibly have any}. I had to add a splash of milk to thaw it a little and then I gave it a good stir. It was just as delicious as when it was first made.

Blessings~
