Instructions
-
Toast the marshmallows. Place the marshmallows on a foil-lined baking sheet and broil for 1-2 minutes until golden brown and bubbly. Alternatively, use a kitchen torch to toast them. Watch them carefully so they don't burn. Set aside 2 for garnishing.
~5 minLet the marshmallows cool for a minute before adding them to the blender so they don't melt the ice cream too quickly. -
Prepare the glasses. Spread 2 tablespoons of chocolate fudge onto a small plate, and place half of the crushed graham crackers on another small plate. Dip the rim of each glass into the chocolate, then into the graham cracker crumbs. Drizzle a little extra chocolate on the inside of the glasses.
~3 minPlace the prepared glasses in the freezer while you make the milkshake to help the chocolate set. -
In a blender, combine the vanilla ice cream, whole milk, vanilla extract, the 6 toasted marshmallows, and the remaining crushed graham crackers.
~2 minFor a thicker shake, use less milk. For a thinner shake, add an extra splash of milk. -
Blend on medium-high speed until completely smooth and creamy.
~2 min -
Pour the milkshake into the prepared glasses. Top generously with whipped cream, drizzle with any remaining chocolate sauce, and garnish each with a reserved toasted marshmallow.
~3 minServe immediately with wide straws and long spoons.
Tips & Storage
- Ensure your ice cream is high quality for the best texture and flavor.
- If you don't have a kitchen torch, the broiler works perfectly, but do not walk away as marshmallows burn in seconds.
- For an adult version, add 1.5 oz of marshmallow vodka, chocolate liqueur, or bourbon to the blender.
- Storage: Milkshakes are best enjoyed immediately. If necessary, you can freeze leftovers in an airtight, freezer-safe container for up to 1 week, though the texture will become icy. Let it sit at room temperature for 10-15 minutes before attempting to drink or eat with a spoon.
