Recipe information

  • Yield

    Serves 6

Ingredients

1/2 cup water
1/2 cup sugar
4 1/2 cups miniature marshmallows
3/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
4 ounces bittersweet (not unsweetened) or semisweet chocolate, chopped
1/2 cup whipping cream
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
Chocolate ice cream, softened
6 graham crackers, broken into small pieces
6 large marshmallows
6 triangles cut from graham crackers

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Stir 1/2 cup water and sugar in medium saucepan over medium-low heat until sugar dissolves. Simmer until syrup is reduced slightly, about 5 minutes. Reduce heat to very low. Add 3 cups miniature marshmallows; stir until marshmallows melt and sauce is smooth. Mix in 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract.

    Step 2

    Stir chocolate, cream and butter in small saucepan over low heat until chocolate melts and sauce is smooth; mix in 1/2 teaspoon vanilla. (Sauces can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cover separately and chill. Rewarm over low heat before using.)

    Step 3

    Place ice cream in large bowl. Mix in 1 1/2 cups miniature marshmallows and graham cracker pieces. Freeze until firm, at least 2 hours.

    Step 4

    Place 3 scoops of ice cream in each of 6 bowls. Thread large marshmallows onto 2 skewers; hold over gas flame or under broiler until charred. Spoon warm sauces over ice cream. Top each sundae with toasted marshmallow and graham cracker triangle and serve.
