Chocolate Ice Cream with Marshmallows

This chocolate marshmallow ice cream is a thick, fudge-like dark chocolate no-churn ice cream with marshmallow fluff and chocolate ganache swirls throughout. I couldn’t resist sharing this with you guys. It’s quite similar to my Death by chocolate ice cream recipe, but I added marshmallow fluff! If you don’t want it as dark, leave out the chocolate ganache swirl and use water instead of hot coffee.

Ingredients for Marshmallow Ice Cream:

• 2 cups whole milk
• 1 cup heavy cream
• ¾ cup granulated sugar
• ½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
• 4 large egg yolks
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• ½ teaspoon salt
• Chocolate
• ½ cup marshmallow cream (also known as marshmallow fluff)

How to make Chocolate and Marshmallow Ice Cream

Chocolate Marshmallow Ice Cream offers a delightful combination of rich chocolate flavor and creamy marshmallow sweetness, making it a perfect delight for chocolate lovers of all ages. So why not treat yourself to a scoop of homemade Marshmallow Chocolate Ice Cream and experience the blissful harmony of chocolate and marshmallow in every bite?

Here’s how you can make your own Chocolate Ice Cream from scratch:

1. Prepare the Ice Cream Base:
   • In a medium saucepan, combine the whole milk, heavy cream, granulated sugar, and cocoa powder. Whisk until the cocoa powder is fully dissolved.
   • Heat the mixture over medium heat until it reaches a simmer, stirring occasionally.
2. Temper the Egg Yolks:
   • In a mixing bowl, whisk together the egg yolks until they are smooth and creamy.
   • Slowly pour about half of the hot milk mixture into the egg yolks while whisking continuously. This process, known as tempering, helps to prevent the eggs from curdling.
   • Pour the tempered egg yolk mixture back into the saucepan with the remaining hot milk mixture.
3. Cook the Ice Cream Base:
   • Place the saucepan over low heat and cook the mixture, stirring constantly, until it thickens and coats the back of a spoon. This usually takes about 8-10 minutes.
   • Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract and salt. Mix until fully incorporated.
4. Add Marshmallow Cream:
   • Allow the ice cream base to cool slightly, then gently stir in the marshmallow cream. Mix until it is fully incorporated, creating swirls of marshmallow throughout the mixture.
5. Cover and Chill:
   • Cover saucepan with plastic wrap, ensuring it touches ice cream base to prevent skin formation. Refrigerate for 4 hours or overnight for flavors to meld and base to cool completely.
6. Churn the Ice Cream:
   • Once chilled, pour ice cream base into ice cream maker and churn per manufacturer’s instructions, typically 20-30 minutes. It’s ready when it reaches soft-serve consistency and churning is complete.
7. Freeze and Serve:
   • Transfer the churned ice cream into an airtight container, ensuring it is filled to about ¾ full to allow room for expansion during freezing.
   • Place the container in the freezer for at least 4 hours or until the ice cream is firm and ready to serve.
   • When serving, scoop the chocolate and marshmallow ice cream into bowls or cones. For an extra touch, you can drizzle some chocolate syrup or top with mini marshmallows.
   • Enjoy your homemade chocolate marshmallow ice cream as a rich and indulgent dessert that combines the beloved flavors of chocolate and marshmallow.

Chocolate Ice Cream Variations:

This Marshmallow Chocolate Ice Cream can be adjusted to your liking by removing or adding ingredients. Here are a few ideas:

• Vanilla: A dash of vanilla extract or vanilla bean paste can provide a touch of sweetness.
• Chocolate Chip Cookies: Before freezing, add some crumbled chocolate chip cookies for extra crunch and chocolate delight.
• Chocolate Syrup: Drizzle chocolate syrup over the top for an added layer of chocolatey delight.
• Alternative Sweeteners: To replace sugar, use maple syrup, agave nectar, or sweetened condensed milk.
• Nuts: Add some chopped almonds or hazelnuts for added crunch.

Tips for Best Ice Cream Results:

Use Quality Ingredients: To get the finest flavor, utilize high-quality ingredients. The quality of your chocolate, cream, and marshmallows will have a big impact on the overall flavor of your Marshmallow Chocolate Ice Cream.

Soften Marshmallow: Fresh out of the tub, marshmallow fluff is fairly thick and difficult to spread. Place in the microwave for 10-15 seconds, then mix thoroughly to soften.

Prevent Ice Crystals: To prevent the production of ice crystals, apply a layer of plastic wrap immediately on the ice cream’s surface before freezing.

Proper Storage: Use a small, freezer-safe container to store your ice cream. This not only helps to ensure that the ice cream is frozen uniformly, but it also makes scooping easier.

Chill before Churning: To achieve the greatest texture, refrigerate your ice cream ingredients completely before churning. This results in smoother, creamier ice cream.
