In a medium saucepan over low heat, combine the marshmallows and heavy cream.
Stir frequently with a heatproof spatula or wooden spoon until the marshmallows melt completely and the mixture is smooth, about 5-7 minutes.
Once the marshmallows are fully melted, remove the saucepan from the heat.
Stir in the vanilla extract, butter, and a pinch of salt until the butter has fully melted and everything is well combined.
Allow the topping to cool slightly before drizzling over ice cream. The mixture will thicken as it cools.
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week. Reheat gently before using.
