ICE CREAM RECIPES
-KID FRIENDLY
It has been snowing a lot here in the hills of Kentucky
for around 3 weeks now snow had been falling pretty regularly.
I got to thinking about the old time tradition of making snow cream
or as some call it, snow ice cream.
I want to share some snow cream recipes with you today.
In all of the Snow Cream recipes be sure when adding ingredients
Stir quickly.
You want to get it all mixed before the snow melts.
Note of CAUTION:
MAKE double sure the snow is CLEAN.
Mom used to tell me you had to wait until the second good
size snow before the air was clean enough to make safe snow cream.
Make sure you do not collect the snow where
critters and birds eat or use the restroom.
The most important ingredient in any of these recipes
is C L E A N snow.
