  While ice cream is freezing, chop the walnuts. then with scissors, cut marshmallows in half and cut the halves in half. Cut again into quarters. Dust cut ends in powdered sugar to prevent marshmallows from sticking together. Hint 1: For ease of cutting marshmallows, dip scissors into a glass of water. Hint 2: If using regular size marshmallows, cut in half and then quarters, but you will probably need more than 7. You want the marshmallows to be larger than mini marshmallows.

  Tip: This ice cream is better when it is firm rather than in soft serve form because the creaminess is more defined. Hint: I usually wash an empty ice cream container to put the finished product in and it works great!
