Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 cups Fresh, clean snow
- 1 cup Granulated sugar
- 1 cup Milk
- 1 tablespoon Pure vanilla extract
- 1 pinch Salt
Instructions
Gather fresh, clean snow in a large mixing bowl; aim for about 8 cups of fluffy snow.
In a separate small bowl or measuring cup, mix together the granulated sugar, milk, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt until the sugar is fully dissolved.
Pour the milk mixture over the snow in the large mixing bowl.
Gently fold the liquid mixture into the snow using a wooden spoon or spatula until everything is evenly combined and forms a creamy consistency. Avoid overmixing, as the snow will melt quickly.
Taste and adjust sweetness or vanilla flavor if needed.
Spoon the Snow Cream into individual bowls and serve immediately as a refreshing treat!
Optional: Add toppings such as sprinkles, fruit, chocolate syrup, or a dusting of cocoa powder for extra flair.
