"2nd Snow" Ice Cream

My grandmother used to tell me when I was a little girl, that we had to wait for the "second snow" of the winter before we could make this special ice cream because "the clouds were dirty & the first snow gets them clean, so the second snow is perfect". We all know this to not be true, but after raising 7 kids of her own, I think its fair to say she was entitled to spin any story she wanted just for the fun of it! :)

one REALLY BIG bowl of snow (remember now, the top & bottom layers are "dirty" & pls, none that is yellow already!)
1/2 - 1 cup sugar
1/4 cup evaporated milk
1 t vanilla extract
1-2 T cocoa if you want chocolate instead of just vanilla

mix all ingredients in a really big bowl, take pictures, then hand out spoons...so easy...THE KIDS CAN DO IT! :)
