A Snow Day Blog

    Snow days just don’t have the same appeal as adults, but for kids they are the highlight of winter. When I was a kid, growing up in Southeast Missouri, the best snow days involved making snow cream with my mom. If you haven’t tried it, this week’s powdery snow is perfect for making this yummy treat. 

    Send the kids outside to scoop up a few bowls full, or If you have a high powered blender, you can also make your own snow by using using shaved ice. Here’s how to do it. 



Southern Snow Cream

Ingredients
8 cups fresh snow
1 (14-ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Directions
Place snow or shaved ice into a large bowl. Pour condensed milk over and add vanilla. Mix to combine. Serve immediately in bowls.Top with sprinkles to add color and fun.
