Make Ice Cream out of Snow!

Snow Ice Cream
The best part? It's super easy, you can make it in 5 minutes!!!!
Are you as sick of winter as I am? I’m ready for Spring!!! So, we’ve been thinking of ways to enjoy these cold, cold days. If you’re lucky enough to get some fluffy snow, let the kids make some snow ice cream! We saw this in Family Fun magazine and it’s a hit.....just make sure to avoid the yellow snow. ;)

Place in blender:
1 pint Whipping Cream
½ c. white sugar or splenda

Add your favorite flavorings:
for chocolate: ¼ c. chocolate syrup
for vanilla: 1 tsp. vanilla extract
other options: 1 sliced banana (banana chocolate, YUM!!), ½ c. berries, scoop of peanut butter.

Blend on high for 3 minutes, until the cream thickens.

Have the kids fill a large mixing bowl with clean snow. Pour the cream mixture over the snow and fold in crushed cookies, chocolate chips, or whatever toppings you want. Eat it fast, it’s best fresh!!
