Ingredients
- 1 cup low-fat evaporated milk
- 1 cup skim milk
- 0.5 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 0.75 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup mini marshmallows
- 0.5 cup chopped almonds
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
Directions
Step 1
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the low-fat evaporated milk, skim milk, unsweetened cocoa powder, granulated sugar, vanilla extract, and salt until the cocoa powder and sugar are fully dissolved.
Step 2
Pour the cocoa mixture into an ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer's instructions. This usually takes about 20-25 minutes.
Step 3
When the mixture has thickened and is nearing the end of churning, gradually add the mini marshmallows and chopped almonds to the ice cream maker.
Step 4
Let the machine incorporate the marshmallows and almonds into the ice cream.
Step 5
Transfer the ice cream into an air-tight container and freeze for at least 2 hours to allow it to firm up.
Step 6
Before serving, let the ice cream sit at room temperature for a few minutes to soften slightly for easier scooping.
