Snow Icecream is a Scream!
When I first saw Paula Deen, the Queen of all things sweet, make ice cream from snow, I couldn’t believe it!
I mean, here I live in Canada, where we get a ton of snow each winter. So much snow, we don’t know what to do with it. We simply move it around, make taller and wider mounds, sometimes we make forts or snowmen, pack it down with snowshoes, run over it with snow machines, or try desperately to melt it. However, I’ve never heard of making something edible with snow. (Well, except for eating it raw, obviously)
So tonight I took the plunge. I put that 15 cm of white stuff that fell earlier in the day to good use and tried the recipe. Can you call something a recipe if it only calls for three ingredients? Sure.
Yum! Snow, condensed/sweetened milk and vanilla extract truly made great soft serve ice cream. It did melt quickly, so if you rather, it could also become a favourite milkshake recipe.
