Snow Ice Cream

It’s Cheap Eats February, and what better way to start the month than with a blizzard, a snow day, and a treat that falls out of the sky? This recipe for snow ice cream from friend and snow day parent Teresa S. is surprisingly delicious! 



We collected show in a clean 30 gallon tub overnight and didn’t get to ice cream until a little later in the day, so I think our snow was a little more dense than the snow used in the original recipe. We used 8 cups of snow, and halved the rest of the ingredients in the recipe below. It made enough for 4 generous bowls of ice cream and another serving or two in the freezer.

I’m sure there are all kinds of health reasons you should not eat ice cream made of snow – even perfectly fresh snow. So don’t try this at home, or if you do, for goodness sake don’t blame me (end disclaimer).

Enjoy!
