Kim’s Tips

Tips
  • This recipe can be easily doubled or tripled for larger gatherings or parties.
  • You can use any freezer-safe container you have, no need for a loaf pan. Be cautious when scooping ice cream to avoid scratching your metal pans.
  • This ice cream stays soft, not too hard when frozen. Keep it in the freezer until right before serving to avoid quick melting.

Storage

Storage: Store this ice cream in a freezer-safe container for up to 2 months. The Lucky Charms cereal may get soft, so consider using just the marshmallows in the ice cream and adding the cereal when serving.
