Chocolate Ganache:
- 3 Tablespoons heavy cream
- 3 ounces semi-sweet chocolate, chips or chopped
Ice Cream:
- 1 (14 oz) can sweetened condensed milk
- ⅓ cup hot chocolate powder
- 2 cups heavy cream
- 1 cup mini marshmallows, plus more for topping
- ½ cup mini semi-sweet chocolate chips, plus more for topping
Make the Ganache:
In a glass measuring cup, bring the heavy cream to a simmer in the microwave, about 30 seconds. Add chopped chocolate, cover with plastic wrap, and allow to sit for 5 minutes. Stir until smooth; set aside to cool.
Make the Ice Cream:
In a medium mixing bowl, stir the sweetened condensed milk and hot chocolate powder together until combined.
In the chilled bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment, whip the cream until stiff peaks form. Stir 1 cup of the whipped cream into the condensed milk mixture until combined and slightly lightened. Pour this mixture in with the rest of the whipped cream and fold together until few white streaks remain. Fold in the marshmallows and chocolate chips.
To assemble, pour 1/3 of the ice cream custard into a freezer-safe container, then drizzle 1/3 of the chocolate sauce on top. Repeat this process two more times until you've used up all of the ingredients. Swirl with a butter knife or chopstick. Cover with tin foil and freeze for at least 6 hours, or overnight.
