Currently,here on the East Coast There is 2 feet of snow on the ground. I have been making snow ice cream for years,mut it would turn watery quckly.It also did not taste like real ice cream,more of a snow cone.There is more than enough snow to experiment with.There are infinite possibilities with this recipe. I will show how to make three and give you some ideas. If you skip putting it in the freezer you get a very good moctail!!

Step 1: The Basic Recipe

So snow ice cream is the following plus a flavoring:

                                                          ½ a cup of heavy cream
                                                          ½ a cup of sugar
                                                          a bowl of snow
                                                          your flavoring

When you have finished mixing things up,put it in the freezer for about a half an hour to thicken it up(it does not take long to freeze snow)

Very nice instructable, and the recipes look delicious. Unfortunately, due to the amount of air pollution in the average city, I wouldn't suggest eating the snow from your backyard, no matter how clean it looks.

AWESOME! We made snow ice cream as children and I've tried to figure out how multiple times over the years and never found a recipe. I can't wait to try this one out!

Big snow storm just hit my neighborhood, I can't wait to make some!
