How to Make Homemade Marshmallows
I love marshmallows . . . they are so good, especially toasted over a campfire. My mother-in-law has learned to always have marshmallows in the house when I come to visit because inevitably, I will ask for them at some point during our visit. That being said, I decided it was probably a good idea for me to try my hand at making my own, just to see if I could. It was surprisingly easier than I thought it would be, although without a mixer, it would be pretty impossible (unless you didn't care about keeping your arm, then you'd be fine) ;) This is the recipe I used (
Marshmallows from the Hungry Mouse), and with all the pictures on this blog, it's pretty simple to figure out. Here was my process:
 |
| Softening the gelatin |
 |
| Powdered sugar coated pans |
 |
| After the sugar syrup was added to the gelatin and it was mixed for 25 minutes = marshmallow fluff |
 |
| The tops were dusted with powdered sugar and dried overnight |
 |
| All cut up pretty and coated with more powdered sugar. That's a gallon-sized bag. |
 |
| Yum, marshmallows . . . I'd call this one a success :) |
These were the BEST marshmallows EVER!!! I never would have thought of making home made marshmallows, but leave it up to Vanessa to make one of her favorite treats! If you get a chance to try one, you'll agree! MUM
