Description
A rich and creamy Rocky Road Ice Cream Without Nuts made with chocolate, marshmallows, and crunchy nut-free mix-ins. Easy to make, no-churn, and perfect for allergy-friendly treats.
Ingredients
Scale
2 cups heavy cream (or oat/soy cream for dairy-free)
1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk (use vegan condensed milk if needed)
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1 cup mini marshmallows (check for gelatin-free or vegan)
3/4 cup crushed gluten-free graham crackers (or safe cookies)
1/2 cup nut-free chocolate chunks (vegan if needed)
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form.
- In a separate bowl, mix together the condensed milk, cocoa powder, and vanilla extract until smooth.
- Gently fold the whipped cream into the chocolate mixture using a spatula.
- Stir in the mini marshmallows, crushed graham crackers, and chocolate chunks until evenly distributed.
- Pour the mixture into a loaf pan or freezer-safe container and smooth the top.
- Cover with foil or parchment and freeze for at least 6 hours, or overnight.
- Let it sit at room temperature for 5–10 minutes before scooping. Enjoy!
Notes
- Make sure your cream is cold before whipping it helps it thicken faster.
- For a dairy-free version, use full-fat oat or soy cream and vegan condensed milk.
- Use vegan marshmallows if avoiding gelatin.
- Crushed pretzels or puffed rice cereal are great nut-free substitutes for extra crunch.
- Store in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks; best texture is within 7–10 days.
- Let the ice cream sit at room temp for a few minutes before scooping for a softer texture.
