01 / WHAT YOU NEED

Ingredients

1 (7 ounce) jar marshmallow creme 1 tablespoon water, or more as needed Royal blue food coloring 1 (1.5 quart) container vanilla ice cream 1 cup chopped strawberries

02 / HOW TO MAKE IT

Let's cook.

Step 1

Start by mixing the marshmallow creme with 1 to 2 tablespoons of hot water in a bowl until it’s nice and smooth. Add a few drops of blue food coloring until you get the shade you like. Next, scoop the ice cream into a large bowl and give it a good stir with a wooden spoon to soften it up a bit. Gently fold the blue marshmallow mixture into the ice cream to create pretty swirls. Cover the bowl and pop it back in the freezer for at least 8 hours so it can firm up again. When you're ready to serve, scoop the ice cream into bowls or sundae glasses and top each one with fresh strawberries. Enjoy!

Serving ideas

Serve in clear glass bowls or tall glasses to show off the layers and colors. Pair with a drizzle of hot fudge or caramel sauce for added richness. A sprig of mint or a few fresh berries can add a nice touch of freshness.

Storage & leftovers

Sundaes are best enjoyed immediately, but if you need to store leftovers, cover them tightly and keep them in the freezer. Consume within a day to maintain the best texture and flavor. Avoid refreezing once thawed.
