This quick, easy Snow Ice Cream recipe makes the perfect snow-day treat! It requires only four simple ingredients and five minutes, and it's easy enough for kids to make all by themselves!
Scoop clean, fresh snow into a large mixing bowl and set aside.
Combine cream, sugar, salt, and vanilla in a medium bowl or measuring cup and stir until sugar completely dissolves.
Drizzle the cream mixture over the fresh snow, folding it in gently to combine. The consistency of snow ice cream should be light and airy; scoopable, and somewhere between homemade ice cream and a very thick milkshake. If yours seems too heavy or watery, add more snow until it reaches the consistency you like.
Notes
Snow cream is best eaten immediately after it is made. The smooth, delicate structure of the snow turns to crunchy ice crystals when refrozen.
