Raleigh, North Carolina saw it's first snow on Christmas Day in over 70 years! Wow! And boy did it snow! I got about 6 inches at my house, and as much as a foot was reported in some places. I'm so glad I had some time off work to relax and be lazy... Which also calls for some bad cabin fever! I've been snowed in for a couple days now, and as much as I don't like driving on ice and snow, I'm ready to get out the house and return to work. I love being snowed in, but all good things must come to an end.
With all this snow cover, I couldn't resist making some good old fashioned SNOW CREAM!! I don't really have a recipe for it, and I ate it up so fast that I forgot to take a photo! But all it takes is...
some fresh fallen fluffy snow (1-2 cups), milk (1/2 cup or condensed milk), sugar (1/4 cup), a pinch of cinnamon (really, like a 1/4 tsp), and vanilla flavoring (1 tbsp). Mix the milk, sugar, cinnamon, and vanilla. Then pour over the snow and stir until it makes a creamy ice cream like consistency. Feel free to adjust the ingredients to your taste. To make it firmer, pop it in the freezer.
Wallah!! Snow Cream!! It's sooo good, trust me, Enjoy :)
PS: Please make sure your snow is clean. Collect it the same day it fell, or put a bowl out. I just scooped some off my car!
