Forget those family-sized tricolour tubs, this is a cooler version of the Neapolitan flavour combo.
Ingredients
1 litre good quality chocolate ice-cream, softened
¾ cup 70 per cent cocoa dark chocolate, roughly chopped
1 litre good quality raspberry or strawberry gelato, softened
1 packet campfire marshmallows (jumbo oversized smores-style marshmallows)
Chocolate cookie crumb
100g plain flour
1 tsp cornflour
100g castor sugar
65g cocoa powder
85g melted butter
Method
Preheat oven to 180C. For the chocolate cookie crumb combine all ingredients in a bowl and use your hands to thoroughly combine. The mixture should form clusters quite quickly. Spread the clusters on a tray lined with baking paper and bake for 20 minutes. Set aside to harden and cool.
Grease and line a 20cm x 30cm high-sided (15cm) baking tray with plastic wrap, ensuring there is plenty of overhang. Combine the chocolate ice-cream and dark chocolate chunks in a bowl until combined. Pour into the lined tray and place in the freezer to harden – at least a few hours.
Repeat with the raspberry gelato, spreading it over the chocolate layer. Return to the freezer to set.
Preheat the oven grill to high. Place the marshmallows onto a lightly greased sheet of baking paper. Place in the oven to toast for 1 to 2 minutes, watching regularly as they can turn from caramel to burnt in the blink of an eye. Remove and set aside.
Remove the ice-cream tray from the freezer and cover liberally with the cookie crumb. Carefully remove the toasted marshmallows from the sheet of baking paper using a spatula, and place on top of the cookie crumb (don't worry, they hold their shape very well during transit). Use a hot wet knife to cut into the ice-cream cake and serve immediately.
Note: This makes more cookie crumb than required for this recipe. Any leftovers will store covered in the fridge for one month.
