Snow Cream Recipe 1
One big bowl of fresh, clean snow
(set your bowl out while it's snowing! I don't recommend scooping up snow that has already fallen)
(set your bowl out while it's snowing! I don't recommend scooping up snow that has already fallen)
2 drops of vanilla extract
1 can of evaporated milk
A dash of sugar
Once you have a full bowl of snow collected, bring it inside and quickly get to work! Add in your can of evaporated milk and stir. Add in a dash of vanilla extract and a dash of sugar to taste, continuously stirring. Eat immediately before it gets melty!
Snow Cream Recipe 2
1 gallon of snow
1 tbsp of vanilla extract
2 cups milk
1 cup sugar
The measurements in this recipe are slightly more precise because it's from the news, the only difference is that this one uses regular milk instead of evaporated. A lot of recipes use sweetened condensed milk and my friend, Marleigh, used coffee creamer so I think you can get pretty creative with what you have at home.
The instructions are basically the same — once your snow is gathered, add in the vanilla extract and sugar, and milk as desired. You'll still want to eat this right away after you make it!
If you do end up having snow cream left over, you can stick the bowl in the freezer over night.
And here's our finished product! It's a sweet treat for a snow day! I don't even like vanilla ice cream typically, but snow cream is different and it's so good. I highly recommend giving it a try the next time it snows if you haven't yet! BTW, this picture kinda looks like I photoshopped my hand in, but it's the real deal. I stepped outside on the porch to get this shot while freezing.
Do you make snow cream when it snows?
