There are some methods of cooking that are so simple and make so much sense that we overlook them. I once saw a man on Diners, Drive-ins, and Dives put an entire apple pie into a gelato base, blend it all up, and make Apple Pie Gelato out of it. Yes, the whole freakin’ pie. It sounds over the top, but really, if you want to make something taste like Apple Pie, why wouldn’t you just add Apple Pie?
That same concept applies to this incredible milkshake. If you want a milkshake to taste like toasted marshmallows, you don’t add artificial flavorings or even plain marshmallows; you put whole toasted marshmallows into the milkshake mix with all of their charred goodness. The results are everything you could ever dream of: luscious, liquified toasted marshmallows with an added creamy smoothness from the ice cream. It’s amazing how much that charred marshmallow taste shines through. And with every sweetly nostalgic sip, you might just taste a hint of summer campfire on the back of your tongue.
