Method
- I make this using a high speed blender and no cooking.
- More and more I like this method when possible, sometimes though you need/should cook the base! Anyway this is how I make it. You can of course cook the base using your preferred method.
- Add all the dry ingredients to a bowl and mix well. Important!
- Add the milk and the chocolate to a blender.
- Run on max speed until the chocolate is fully blended and emulsified for approx two minutes.
- Lower the speed and add the dry ingredients and the cream.
- Run at medium speed for one minute.
- Rest in the fridge for 2-4 hours to chill the base. (It will be a little warm after blending).
- Chop the almonds.
- Run in ice cream machine.
- Layer ice cream, almonds and marshmallow fluff in a container.
- Freeze.
