cup cocoa powder (regular or dark)

Instructions

In a large saucepan, combine the cream, cocoa, sugar, and salt. Whisk to combine and then heat over medium heat, stirring continually, until it comes together and begins to steam and simmer. If you wish, you may increase the heat, but continue stirring non-stop. Do not step away at this point.

Remove from the heat and immediately add the chocolate. Whisk until the chocolate has completely melted. Stir in the milk and vanilla. Cool and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight until completely cold.

Process according to your machine's instructions. Transfer the ice cream to a freezer-safe container and gently stir in about 1 cup of marshmallow cream and most of the almonds and chocolate chips, reserving a few tablespoons worth for topping. Take care not to overmix and leave plenty of streaks of marshmallow in the ice cream.

Drop spoonfuls of the remaining marshmallow cream over the top of the ice cream and sprinkle with the remaining almonds and chocolate chips. Use a knife to very lightly swirl the marshmallow cream into the ice cream. Freeze for 8 hours, until firm enough to scoop, before serving.
