Description
Skip the sticky fingers and eat your S’mores from a bowl when you use this Toasted Marshmallow Ice Cream as a base. Or just eat it alone!
Ingredients
- 7 ounces, weight Miniature Marshmallows (about 4 Cups)
- 2 cups Half-and-half
- ¼ cups Sugar
- 3 whole Large Egg Yolks
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
Preparation
Preheat broiler to high.
Place marshmallows in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment coated with cooking spray. Broil 30 seconds or until golden brown and toasted. Cool.
Combine half-and-half and granulated sugar in a saucepan over medium-high heat; bring to a simmer, stirring occasionally. Place yolks in a medium bowl; stir with a whisk until smooth. Gradually add hot half-and-half mixture to egg yolks, stirring constantly with a whisk. Return egg mixture to pan; cook over medium heat 6 minutes or until mixture thickens slightly and reaches 160°F, stirring constantly. Strain through a fine sieve into a large bowl set over a larger ice water-filled bowl. Let stand until cold, stirring occasionally.
Place half-and-half mixture, marshmallows, and vanilla in a blender; process until smooth. Chill mixture 3 hours or overnight.
Pour marshmallow mixture into the freezer can of an ice-cream freezer; freeze according to manufacturer’s instructions. Place in a freezer safe container and freeze for 3 hours or until firm.
Makes about 1 quart.
