I made this a few days ago but have been too busy to post the recipe. This is kind of like homemade ice cream, but it came out a bit richer than that. And, no churning, no raw eggs, no coarse salt...I realize all of those things have their place in the nostalgic art of homemade-ice-cream-making, but for me, this sounded easy and yummy. I also think it will be so easy, in the future, to change the pudding types and the mix-ins and make almost anything you want. Here's the recipe, from Kraft Food & Family.
Chocolate Chunk and Marshmallow Sundae
2 pkgs (3.9 oz each) instant chocolate pudding
2 cups milk
8 oz cool whip, thawed
1 cup mini marshmallows
4 squares semi-sweet chocolate, coarsely chopped (I used 3/4 cup chocolate chips instead. Easier than chopping those hard squares)
2 cups sliced fresh strawberries
Beat pudding mixes and milk in large bowl with whisk for 2 minutes. Stir in cool whip, marshmallows, and chocolate. Spoon into 2-quart freezer safe container and cover. Freeze 4 hours or until firm. Scoop into dessert dishes and top with berries.
Well of course most people here didn't want strawberries on theirs, but I bought them anyway because some our family was here and they like strawberries. We only let this freeze for 2.5 hours, so it didn't scoop exactly like ice cream. Next time I will let it freeze the recommended time. It tasted really good. Really rich, too, so you don't need huge servings. 3 adults and 5 kids and there was none left. Easy and yummy which is the perfect combination.
