Ingredients
 

  • 2 ½ cups (600 grams) heavy cream
  • 3 cups (108 grams) Lucky Charms cereal bits (not the marshmallows)
  • 1 14 oz can sweetened condensed milk
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2 cups (72 grams) Lucky Charms marshmallows

Instructions

  • Separate the Lucky Charms cereal bits from the marshmallows. Put the marshmallows aside.
  • Line a standard loaf pan/8 or 9 inch cake pan/etc., with parchment paper (basically anything that is decent in size) and set aside.
  • Combine the heavy cream and Lucky Charms cereal bits in a large bowl. Give it a stir, cover, and put in the fridge for 45 minutes, stirring half way through. The seeping of the cereal bits in the heavy cream will give the cream a Lucky Charms flavor.
  • Meanwhile, combine the sweetened condensed milk and vanilla extract. Whisk to combine, then set aside.
  • Once the 45 minutes is up, remove the bowl from the fridge and carefully strain the cereal bits out of the heavy cream. You can gently press on the cereal bits in the strainer with a rubber spatula to release more cream. Discard of the cereal bits.
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, or a large bowl if using a handheld mixer, beat the cream on medium-high speed for 3-4 minutes until fluffy medium peaks form. Medium peaks are in between soft peaks and stiff peaks. If you over-whip, the mixture will look curdled and heavy. If this happens, pour in a little bit of heavy cream and fold gently until incorporated and smooth.
  • Pour the sweetened condensed milk mixture into the whipped cream and fold to combine. Add the lucky charms marshmallows and fold until evenly incorporated throughout.
  • Pour the mixture into your prepared pan and freeze for at least 12 hours or overnight. Scoop and serve with fresh cereal bits sprinkled on top, crushed Oreos, sprinkles, etc!
