How to make it

  • In a heavy duty sauce pan or pot place the half and half and marshmallows and cook over medium heat, stirring often to fully melt marshmallows.
  • When melted , remove pot from heat, cool briefly at room temperature and place pot in refrigerator to cool and thicken mixture ( perhaps 20 to 30 minutes or so - you don't want it over chilled just cold ).
  • When marshmallow mixture is cool, stir it again, then whip the cream to almost soft peaks ( please, not stiff !) .
  • Fold whipped cream into cooled marshmallow mixture and blend well with mixer on low speed or hand whisk.
  • Immediately place mixture in your electric ice cream maker following manufacturers instructions for making ice cream..
  • Variations: when the mixture starts to thicken in the ice
  • cream maker, one may add some well drained chopped maraschino cherries or I suppose whatever you like ( finely chopped nuts, mini chocolate chips etc )
  • Yield: 1 plus quart.
  • Note: recipe may be doubled. Please don't use imitation vanilla extract ; just the real stuff.

    I bought an ice cream maker a few years ago and love it. I make my ice cream with no artificial ingrdients and preservtives.
    My rose petal ice cream which I already I posted is do die for if one likes exotic, pink and rose petal flavor.Hope you do try that one too!
