My mother made this for Christmas or Thanksgiving. She always used lime jello with pineapple and walnuts. I realized it is ultimately adaptable to whatever strikes your fancy. I started with cherries as my fruit. If you like this recipe see others at my website: http://mybestcookbook.wordpress.com

    After about 30 minutes, remove and whisk, as the ice cream wants to separate. Return to fridge. Continue doing this until it has started to thicken enough to add the rest of the ingredients.

    NOTE: you can do this in a mold or in a bowl. If using a mold, I would start in a bowl and not transfer to the mold until you are thick enough to have added the fruit, nuts, and marshmallows.
