Snow Cream Cinquain - or What to Do on a Snow Day

Directions

1. On a snowy day, warm the cream. Add sugar. Stir to dissolve. Stir in vanilla. Let cool.
2. Send the kids outside to play. Have them collect a goodly amount of clean snow in a large bowl. Come back inside. Add to cream in 2-cup increments and stir together until desired consistency.
3. Serve right away or transfer to container and freeze. Scoop into serving cups and add toppings of your choice. I used warm caramel sauce and almonds from the NYC nutman.
4. More like an icemilk, the taste and texture reminds me of cream-flavored Italian ice, the homemade kind at Italian pizzerias.
