In honor of this crazy snow day we made Snow Cream. I don't know about you but this just brings back childhood memories. Every time we had a "second" snowfall my mom would send us outside with her largest Tupperware bowls to scoop up some snow. For some reason unbeknown to me, you aren't aloud to use snow from the "first" snowfall of the year. It's tradition so we didn't mess with it. We would spend part of our snow days sitting in the warmth of the house filling ourselves with yummy snow cream, watching movies and playing games.
So, many years later here we are sitting with a huge second or third snowfall, eating snow cream and watching movies in our warm house. We used sweet condensed milk in our recipe growing up but since I didn't have any I found a different recipe that tasted just the same.
*Snow* Cream:
1 Gallon of Snow
2 Cups of Milk
1 Cup of Sugar
1 T of Vanilla
Send the kids outside to get some good, clean snow. In a medium sized bowl mix: milk, sugar and vanilla. In a large bowl combine the mixture with the snow. Mix it up and serve it like ice cream. Enjoy!
