1-1/2 cups Lucky Charms cereal (marshmallows removed)
1/2 cup granulated sugar
5 egg yolks, slightly beaten
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 cup Lucky Charms marshmallows

Instructions

In a large pouring vessel combine cream, milk and buttermilk. Add cereal (no marshmallows) and let soak for 15 minutes, stirring at least twice. Pour contents into a food processor or blender and blend until cereal is pulverized into bits. Mixture will be slightly frothy and thick.
1-1/2 cups heavy cream, 1-1/2 cups whole milk, 1/2 cup buttermilk (full-fat if you can find), 1-1/2 cups Lucky Charms cereal
Pour milk mixture and sugar into a large saucepan. Heat on low until the sides of the pan are slightly bubbly and mixture is starting to warm. Stir constantly. Remove a 1/4 cup of the milk mixture and mix with egg yolks in a separate bowl. Add another 1/4 cup and so on, until egg mixture is at the same temperature as what is in the saucepan. Add egg mixture to the saucepan and stir until mixture coats the back of a spoon, do not boil. Remove from heat and add vanilla.
1/2 cup granulated sugar, 5 egg yolks, slightly beaten, 1 tsp vanilla extract
Cool completely and place in the refrigerator until mixture is very cold, preferably overnight. Add mixture to ice cream maker and freeze according to manufactures direction. When Ice cream is done, pour in marshmallows while machine is still churning. As soon as they are combined, turn off machine and place ice cream in freezer until hardened, about 4 hours.
