Instructions
Prep your ice cream machine according to package directions. Some machines require you to freeze the bowl first while others need you to have ice and rock salt.
Preheat the oven to broil setting. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Spread marshmallows into an even layer on the baking sheet. Broil 1 minute, or until golden on top. Watch carefully, they can burn quickly. Remove from oven and let cool.
In a microwave-safe bowl, add the chocolate. Microwave 1 minute at 50% power. Remove and stir. Microwave in 15 second increments, stirring between each, until chocolate is melted and smooth. Remove and allow to cool slightly.
In a bowl or the base of your ice cream container, combine heavy cream, milk, sugar, salt, and vanilla.
To make the ice cream, follow instructions for your specific ice cream maker. After churning 10 minutes, drizzle in spoonfuls of melted chocolate, 3/4 of the toasted marshmallows, and graham cracker pieces. Continue churning 15 minutes, or until thickened to a soft serve. Store in an airtight container in the freezer 3 to 4 hours, or until firm.
Scoop into a bowl when ready to serve. Top with the remaining toasted marshmallows. Drizzle hot fudge or caramel sauce over the top, if desired.
