Non Dairy Snow Ice Cream

Non Dairy Chocolate Snow Ice Cream

Ingredients:
*8 Cups fresh snow
*1 Cup chocolate soy milk (sub regular milk for vanilla ice cream)
* 1/2 cup sugar (we used Splenda)
*1 teaspoon of vanilla

Directions:
1. Collect 8 cups of snow (place a large bowl outside while it is snowing for the freshest snow)
2. Mix snow chocolate soy milk, sugar/Splenda & vanilla together
3. Enjoy right away! YUM!

My Review:
For those of you who don't know I am on a non-diary diet while Zoey is breast feeding because of a milk protein allergy. When a friend mentioned making snow ice cream with her kids it sparked the idea that I could make a diary free option. I'm super excited and very impressed with the result. Now I have a tasty ice cream option for those "ice cream kind of day". :)
Ethan got a kick out of using snow to make something to eat. When I told him he could take a taste he said, "but it's snow." He liked mixing and pouring more than eating, but then again that's Ethan, not really into eating much of anything.

Low Calorie Chocolate Muffin

I promise you will LOVE this super easy, very yummy low calorie muffin. It is like a moist brownie and surprisingly doesn't taste like pumpkin (one of the ingredients).

Ingredients:
*Chocolate Cake Mix (Devil's Food Cake is what we used)
*1 can Pumpkin puree (about 15 oz)

Directions:
*Preheat oven to 350 degrees
*Mix the 2 ingredients together. You really don't need anything else. Just keep mixing.
*Use a medium cookie scoop (or ice cream scoop) to scoop mix into muffin tin.
*Bake 18-22 minutes at 350 degrees

Fun Facts:
By replacing the oil and egg in this cake mix we removed a total of 2400 calories from the mix!!! The pumpkin puree only adds 100 calories total to the mix. Making these muffins weigh in at about 95 calories!!!

This is a Hungry Girl low calorie swap recently featured on Hungry Girl's cooking show on The Cooking Channel.
