Here's a super easy recipe that turns freshly fallen snow into a delicious ice cream treat the kids can make by themselves.  No snow?  No problem!  Simply process a few ice cubes in your blender to make some instant snow that works perfectly in this recipe. 

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup milk or half and half
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 4-6 cups of clean snow

What to do:

  1. Mix milk/cream, sugar, and vanilla until sugar is dissolved.
  2. If making your own snow, process a few ice cubes at a time in a blender.  My Magic Bullet worked perfectly for this!
  3. Add snow, a cup at a time, into liquid mixture, stirring until it has reached a clumpy, thickened consistency. 
  4. Freeze for a few minutes if desired before serving in a cone or bowl with your favorite toppings.
