How to Make Strawberry Marshmallow Cream Ice Cream
1️⃣ Blend the Base
In a large bowl, whisk together the heavy cream, whole milk, sugar, vanilla, strawberry puree, marshmallow cream, and honey (if using). Mix until smooth and fully combined.
2️⃣ Churn
Pour the mixture into your ice cream maker and churn for 25–30 minutes until thick and creamy.

Scoop and enjoy! Top with extra strawberries, a swirl of marshmallow cream, or even sprinkles for fun.
Tips for Best Results
