Christmas Ice Cream

One of the special treats we like to make for Christmas is what we call our "Christmas Ice cream."
Now I think the only reason it is called that is it has very similar ingredients to our Pudding and Christmas cake.
Having said that I am sure if you wanted to you could make it any time you wanted,although it would probably be a special occasion treat. This in our home however is like lots of our cookies and is restricted to Christmas fare in our home.

150 ml milk
200g marshmallow
1TBS cocoa
1 TBS coffee
50g raisins
25 g sultanas
