Rocky Road to Dublin Ice Cream



1 mint teabag (1 Tbls dried mint leaves)
14 oz. sweetened condensed milk
1/2 cup cocoa powder
2 cups cream
1 cup milk
1 Tbls. vanilla extract
1/2 cup chopped nuts
1 cup multi-colored mini marshmallows

Heat the cream in a small pan over high heat until it is steaming. Add in the mint teabag. Remove from heat, cover, and let steep for 1 hour. Remove teabag and chill completely.

In a small pan over low heat, stir together the sweetened condensed milk and cocoa powder for about 5 minutes, stirring until smooth. Remove from heat. Stir in the cream, milk, and vanilla. Chill completely.

Churn in an ice cream machine according to its directions. Add the chopped nuts and marshmallows at the end, churning for about 5 more minutes to mix them in. For my machine, the bowl needs to be completely frozen. Churn for 15 minutes, then 5 more minutes with the nuts and marshmallows.

Can be served soft, or transferred to an airtight container to be frozen.
