Toasted Marshmallow Milkshake



Marshmallows prior to toasting



INGREDIENTS:

• 1 bag of marshmallows
• Vanilla Bean Ice Cream
• Milk

THE PROCESS:
Open all the windows and turn on all the fans. Have someone stand ready at the fire alarm. Broil the marshmallows on a cookie sheet lined with tin foil on high for 3 minutes. Be sure to keep a close eye on the marshmallows because they may catch on fire. After the marshmallows are done, turn them out on to wax paper to cool. Blend together Ice Cream, Milk and Toasted Marshmallows in a blender until it is a YUMMY milkshake! That's it. Not a very scientific recipe. We typically use about 1/2 a container or ice cream to a tray of marshmallows, not sure how much milk. This is very taste specific. Use more milk for thinner milkshakes and less for thicker.
MAJOR THANKS to Stand in New York City for creating the Toasted Marshmallow Milkshake. Tyler had one last time we were there and couldn't think about anything else until I finally figured out how to recreate them. Now he drinks at least 1 a week.

Hot Butterscotch

At the request of my children,especially our son Kyle, who is serving on a full time proselyting mission for our church right now in the Pennsylvanian Pittsburgh mission, I am posting this recipie. This recipe was given to me by Cindy Chandler, a friend from our active duty days in the US Air Force, while we were living in Germany. It is the perfect drink for those cold days during the holiday season. It is a virgin version of Hot Butterscotch Rum. Don't think about the calories, just enjoy!
