It’s a full-on, school’s canceled snow-day here in NYC. And if you’re anywhere in the snow-zone, you too are seeing scads of the fluff out your window (or in your face). Thought it’d be a great moment to hunt down some snow recipes.
Here’s one site with a bunch of great-sounding snow ice-cream recipes made with basic ingredients you probably have in your house (sugar, vanilla, milk).
I also just made the big sacrifice and created some au naturel snow ice cream for breakfast for research purposes. (You’re welcome!) In my usual tradition of inexact recipes, here’s my deeeelicious concoction (please add “-ish” to the end of each measurement):
2-3 cups clean snow (I skimmed off the top of my freshly snowed fire escape)
2 TBs half-and-half
1 TB maple syrup
1 TB cocoa powder
1 dash pure vanilla
Add ingredients to medium-small bowl, smoosh with a spoon, serve and enjoy! Serves one or two depending on appetite.
Do you have any yum snow recipes to share?

Amazing! Why have I never heard of this before? Even just the act of bringing snow inside the house is astonishing… I just made a vegan version of this using vanilla soymilk and it was delicious. Thanks for a whole new world of snowy yum!

I loved my mother’s snow cream as a child, but hesitated to make it for my own children after I read the attached article.
