Snow Day Snow Cream

1. 1 cup milk (any kind)
2. 1/3 cup granulated sugar.
3. 1 tsp. vanilla extract, store-bought or homemade.
4. 1 pinch salt.
5. 8 cups clean snow or shaved ice (more or less depending on the density of the snow)
6. optional (but strongly suggested) toppings of your choice.

Directions:

First, gather all of your non-snow ingredients:

• granulated sugar
• milk (you can use any kind of milk)
• salt
• vanilla extract

Whisk the ingredients together in a large mixing bowl until combined.  Then pop the bowl in the freezer while you run outside to get your snow. For this batch, you need about 8 cups (more or less) of fresh, clean snow.  But since ours was super light and airy, I brought in a little extra.  Immediately stir the snow into the milk mixture, and keep adding until an ice-cream-ish consistency is achieved.  It should be fluffy and scoop-able, but not runny.  It melts really quickly, so dish it up right away.

Happy Snow Day!
