Toasted Marshmallow Milkshake

This recipe is a knock-off from a segment on The Best Thing I Ever Ate. Carlee put this together and her description of its deliciousness convinced me to try it one night.

You will need:

* vanilla ice cream
*marshmallows
*milk

Directions:

For a single serving, get about 4-6 large marshmallows depending on how sweet you want it. (Be sure to toast an extra one for the presentation...we always use 5 in the milkshake, but toast 6.) Place them on a piece of foil on a cookie sheet. Broil them on high in your oven (or 350 degrees in a toaster oven) until they become a deep golden brown. Take them out and flip them over so they can toast on the other side.

Once they are big and fluffy and golden brown, take them out and put them in a blender. Add about 1/8 c. milk (a little more if you want to drink through a straw) and about 1 c. packed vanilla ice cream. Blend away.

I served it with a toasted mallow on top and a drizzle of chocolate syrup. If you have Cool Whip or Reddi Whip, go ahead and put a heaping portion of that on top for an even creamier treat. The whipped cream also provides a nice place to stick your extra toasted marshmallow!
