The basic recipe calls for just four ingredients: freshly scooped (clean) snow, sweetened condensed milk, salt, and vanilla extract. The snow goes into a big bowl first, then the sweetened condensed milk, and finally the salt and vanilla extract. Combine, until the mixture feels, looks, and tastes like ice cream. Enjoy plain, or add flavor and/or toppings.
If you’re looking for more flavor, combine the snow ice cream recipe with the ones we have here, including lavender-honey and basic vanilla bean. Or take inspiration from one of our awesome ice cream parlors in Reno, Icecycle Creamery. This little spot has uncommon flavors, such as Fresh Basil and Sweet Potato Casserole.
So, even though it’s the middle of winter – we dare you!
