We had our first big snow yesterday, and the kids asked if we could make snow ice cream for dessert. Because it is simple, delicious, and fun to make, I said, “Yes!”
The kids scooped up some clean snow. I mixed three ingredients together. We added the snow.
In about 3 minutes, we had delicious, vanilla ice cream.
Some for 5 kiddos.
And some for Mom (garnished with a chocolate pretzel).
Yummy fun!
