Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 cups Fresh, clean snow
- 1 cup Granulated sugar
- 1 cup Whole milk
- 2 teaspoons Pure vanilla extract
Instructions
Ensure the snow you collect is fresh, clean, and untouched. Avoid collecting snow from areas near roads or areas with known pollutants.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the granulated sugar, whole milk, and pure vanilla extract. Stir until the sugar dissolves completely.
Gradually add the fresh snow to the liquid mixture, one cup at a time. Fold the snow in gently with a spatula or large spoon after each addition.
Continue adding and mixing in snow until the mixture reaches a fluffy, creamy, ice cream-like consistency.
Taste the snow cream and adjust sweetness or vanilla to your preference by adding a bit more sugar or vanilla extract, mixing well after each adjustment.
Serve the snow cream immediately in bowls. Optionally, top with sprinkles, chocolate syrup, or fresh fruit for added flavor and flair.
Enjoy this chilly, sweet treat quickly, as snow cream will melt fast at room temperature!
