Spike Mendelsohn's Toasted Marshmallow Milkshakes



This was an easy and impressive dessert. This drink tastes like a camping trip - toasted marshmallows are just awesome! And having them cold in a drink really makes it interesting. The only thing I'll change next time is to use less milk, because it made the milkshakes too runny. I think maybe half the amount of milk would have been better. I'll definitely tweak this one for parties in the future.

One 1-pound bag jumbo marshmallows

1. Preheat the broiler. On a foil-lined baking sheet, place half of the marshmallows in a single layer; broil until charred, 3 minutes. Transfer to a plate to cool. Place the remaining marshmallows on the sheet and roast until just toasted, 2 minutes; let cool.

2. In a blender, mix the milk, ice cream, sour cream and charred marshmallows. Serve topped with the toasted marshmallows.

  5. I'd assume it's just for a bit of tanginess.
