How to make the marshmallow swirl for Chocolate Marshmallow Ice cream from scratch? My wife loves chocolate marshmallow swirl ice cream, but she doesn't like store-bought marshmallows. I would like to surprise her with homemade chocolate marshmallow swirl ice cream, but I am unsure how to make the marshmallow swirl.

Here are some of the options I have considered:


make homemade marshmallow creme (eg Fluff)
melt homemade marshmallows 


both of these seem experimental. 

Does anyone have a tried and true technique?
I have made marshmallows using Alton Brown's method; it works and is a lot of fun. If you don't form the individual marshmallows, but just swirl it into the ice cream while it's still a sticky mess, that should work for your swirl.

There is even a video in that link.

As ElendilTheTall mentioned in comments, you probably should reduce the amount of gelatin in Alton's recipe, perhaps by a third, to get a good swirl.
