It’s the perfect day for this amazing SNOW ICE CREAM!!

It’s the second week back to school from Christmas break and -guess what?! It’s a snow day! Yes, we get out of school for about 2 inches of snow here in Virginia. The kids are thrilled though, and we have a plan…

Peppermint Snow Dream Ice Cream

We decided to make our Peppermint Snow Dream Ice Cream…

…or as my kids call it “the Brain Freeze”- and want to share this tradition with you and your family. It’s a simple recipe that starts with your very own fresh snow. If you know it will be snowing; you can leave a bowl out overnight. Otherwise just grab the purest, cleanest layer on top. Make sure you leave it outside until you are ready to mix it all.

It’s super easy and a little messy. Here goes!
