This recipe from Creations by Kara is super simple so I great thing to make with the kids on any summer day!
Ingredients needed:
1 ½ cups of sugar
½ cup of cocoa
5 eggs (beaten)
2 cans of evaporated milk (12 oz cans)
1 ½ cups of cream
1 can of sweetened condensed milk (14 oz can)
1 teaspoon of vanilla
1 box of chocolate pudding (3 oz box)
2 ½ cups of milk
2 cups of mini marshmallows
2 cups of roasted chopped almonds
Using a large pan add the sugar and cocoa then whisk together. IN that same pan add the eggs and evaporated milk then whisk until you get a smooth consistency. Heat up over medium heat until it becomes thick and starts bubbling. Remember to stir occasionally. Once it starts to boil, remove from heat and place it in a sink full of ice water so that it can cool down. Once cooled, add the cream, condensed milk, vanilla, pudding mix, and milk then mix everything together until you get a smooth consistency. Next, let the mixture sit in the fridge for about 6 to 8 hours or overnight. Last but not least, add the almonds and marshmallows then stir it all together. Place the ice cream into an airtight container and freeze for about 2 to 3 hours. Now, you can enjoy homemade rocky road ice cream!
First, grab a baking sheet and spread about 2/3 of the mini marshmallows on it then place in the freezer to freeze. While those are freezing up, get a heavy pot and add the milk, sugar and all the large marshmallows. Stir everything together over high heat until it begins to boil. Once boiling, stir occasionally for 6 minutes and then remove from heat. In the same pot, add the chocolate chips and Kelapo Ghee. Stir until the chocolate has melted and created a thick consistency. Now, add the nuts and let the chocolate fudge sit for about 10 minutes or so until it thickens a bit more. Last, add the vanilla and the frozen mini marshmallows and stir together until everything is evenly combined. Grease a 9×13 pan with the Kelapo Coconut Oil Spray and spread the fudge. Pop the pan in the fridge for about 30 minutes to an hour and then enjoy!
