What's in This Chocolate Marshmallow Ice Cream Recipe?
Cocoa Powder. Accomplish the base chocolate flavor for this recipe with the use of cocoa powder. Without this ingredient, your supposedly chocolate ice cream flavor would feel lacking.
Double Cream. Double cream will assist this dish to have its rich flavor and thick consistency. You have to make sure that this ingredient is present in your recipe, or else the ice cream will just be a lumpy and gooey mass.
Sweetened Condensed Milk. Aside from adding sweetness, condensed milk will help soften the texture of the ice cream a bit for easy scooping.
Dark Chocolate Chips. For a more chocolatey taste, allow yourself some dark chocolate chips to accompany your cocoa powder in finishing up the chocolate taste of the recipe.
Caramel Sauce. With caramel sauce in the recipe, your ice cream will also taste mild and buttery and yet still very sweet.
Marshmallow Fluff. For the perfect soft and pillowy texture, marshmallow fluff should not go missing in this recipe.
How To Make Chocolate Marshmallow Ice Cream?
In a large mixing bowl, mix together cocoa powder and double cream until soft peaks form (don't over whip the cream, or it will become too stiff).
Fold in the condensed milk and melted chocolate and stir until combined.
Stir in the chocolate chips.
Scoop 1-2 cups of the mixture into a freezer-proof container, top it with half caramel sauce. Swirl through with the tip of a toothpick until evenly distributed.
Spread half of the marshmallow fluff and swirl again.
Now, add another cup of the chocolate mix on the top, and smooth over with a spoon or spatula. Add the remaining caramel sauce and marshmallow fluff, and swirl through again. Then spread the remaining chocolate mixture on top. Scatter some chocolate chips (optional).
Cover the ice cream and freeze for 4-5 hours or overnight.

Serving Suggestions
Cake and chocolate are some of the best pairs out there. Ice cream and cake is a classic combo, and it's one you've undoubtedly had many times as a youngster at birthday parties. When pairing this frozen delight with a more conventional dessert, a red velvet cake or vanilla cake with a buttercream frosting is always a winner.

Recipe FAQs
Because of the high sugar level in it, the marshmallow fluff will never truly be frozen, resulting in a creamy texture. This ensures that even after the ice cream has hardened, it will remain soft and smooth.
You have to keep this dish in an airtight container before storing it in the freezer. When done doing so, your ice cream can be kept in there for a month.
