I hope spring is on the way, because I can’t take much more snow around here.
All the snow does have some upsides. My favorite is the opportunity to make “snow cream” from a bowl of freshly fallen snow. I didn’t have any cream to pour over my snow, so I just used milk and sugar. In my haste to sample it, I forgot the vanilla extract, but it was yummy anyway.
Here’s how I made the bowl of snow cream:
Grab a personal-size bowl full of clean snow. Sprinkle a tablespoon of sugar over it. Add milk, heavy cream, or evaporated milk just until it’s slightly wet. Add a dash of vanilla extract. Mix all together, then eat it before it melts.
If you need enough snow cream to delight a few more tummies, use this recipe:
Combine 1 cup milk (if you have full-fat, heavy cream, or evaporated milk, you’ll have a creamier consistency), 1/3 cup sugar, and 2 teaspoons of vanilla in a large bowl.
Stir in 8 cups of fresh snow, until it’s fully incorporated. You should have enough snow cream for four people.
