I didn’t realize until adulthood that snow cream is a peculiarity of the Mid-Atlantic states– we aren’t quite in sugar on snow territory– but we still get a fair amount of snow. The recipe is a loose guideline at best– get some snow, add something creamy and sweet to it and eat it quickly before it melts. When I was a kid it was always chocolate syrup, as an adult I like the creaminess of the condensed milk and vanilla. I almost never make this quantity, instead we fill individual bowls up with snow and add the condensed milk to taste with extremely imprecise measurements. However if you want to use up a whole can of condensed milk, this is how you do it.
Ingredients:
- 8 ish cups of clean fresh snow
- Can of sweetened condensed milk (or sweetened condensed coconut milk)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- Chocolate syrup (optional)
Method:
Mix all ingredients in a bowl and eat! (Or add chocolate and sprinkles and then eat…) You’ll be able to scoop it like ice cream briefly, but it melts quickly.
Beautiful snow cone … got a link where I can find that ?
It’s actually from a milk glass flower dish- they have three of these cones in the center of a bowl. You can often find them in thrift stores,
