Ingredients
  

1 loaf of brioche bread

2 cups of Neapolitan ice cream (strawberry, vanilla, chocolate)

1 cup of fresh strawberries, sliced

1 cup of mini marshmallows

1/2 cup of chocolate syrup

4 tablespoons of unsalted butter, softened

Powdered sugar, for dusting

Whipped cream, for serving (optional)

Instructions
 

Prep the Bread: Start by slicing the brioche bread into thick slices (about 1 inch each). You will need two slices for each sandwich.

    Assemble the Sandwich: On one slice of bread, layer a scoop of strawberry ice cream, followed by a layer of vanilla, and finally chocolate ice cream. Gently press to pack the layers slightly. Top with sliced strawberries and mini marshmallows, then drizzle with chocolate syrup. Place another slice of bread on top to create a sandwich.

      Butter the Bread: Spread softened butter on the outside of each sandwich to ensure a golden, crispy finish when grilled.

        Grill the Sandwich: Preheat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium heat. Place the sandwich carefully in the skillet and grill for about 3-4 minutes on one side until golden brown.

          Flip and Finish: Carefully flip the sandwich using a spatula and grill the other side for an additional 3-4 minutes until both sides are crispy and the ice cream inside starts to soften.

            Serve Hot: Once grilled, remove the sandwich from the heat. Allow it to cool for a minute, then dust with powdered sugar. Slice in half for a visually appealing presentation.

              Add Finishing Touches: Optionally, serve with a dollop of whipped cream on the side and more chocolate syrup for dipping or drizzling over the sandwich.
