Directions for Marshmallow Meringue

2) Put meringue in pastry bag or in a ziploc bag.
3) Take cake out of the freezer just before serving. When ready to pipe, cut a 1⁄2 hole in corner of zip loc and pipe dollops evenly over top layer of ice cream cake.
Brown the marshmallow with a hand held torch or place under the broiler for a minute or two, drizzle with chocolate and toppings, UNMOLD, then slice and serve!
