Marshmallow Ice Cream

I was given a KRUPS ice cream churner for my birthday and have been making the most amazing ice cream ever since.

Last night I made ‘The Michelin Man’ Marshmallow Ice Cream from a recipe in The Icecreamists recipe book Wendi gave me for my birthday.

Before I give you the recipe, please note that though making home made ice cream is very easy, it is time consuming and is not something that can be made on a whim. It takes at least 48 hours to make.

Mine doesnt look nearly as pretty as the pic in the recipe book, but Oh Em Gee, it tastes divine!!!

Ingredients

Ice cream

  • 250ml full cream milk (I use 2%)
  • 125ml double cream (I use 250g regular cream)
  • 2 egg yolks
  • 88g caster sugar
  • 100g large marshmallows.

Ripple

  • 50g small marshmallows
  • 100g marshmallow fluff.

Method

  • Bring milk and cream just below boiling in a pan. Mixture must steam but not boil.
  • In a bowl beat egg yolks and sugar.
  • Slowly add hot milk to egg mixture, stirring to ensure eggs don’t scramble.
  • Return to pan and heat to steaming again.
  • Stir large marshmallows into milk mixture until melted.
  • Allow mixture to cool before placing in fridge for a minimum of 6 hours (12 hours is ideal).
  • Once cool pour mixture into churner and churn as per instructions. If you don’t have a churner place in freezer proof dish and freeze, mix occasionally to disperse ice crystals.
  • Once churned fold in small marshmallows and fluff.
  • Freeze for a minimum of 2 hours before serving.

This particular recipe made about 1 litre of ice cream once it was churned.
