Marshmallow Base

Coating

Flavor Variations (Optional)

Method

Preparation of the Marshmallow Base

  1. 1

    Bloom the Gelatin

    In a small bowl, combine the unflavored gelatin with 1/2 cup of cold water. Let it sit for about 10 minutes until it blooms.

  2. 2

    Cook the Sugar Mixture

    In a medium saucepan, combine granulated sugar, corn syrup, and 1/2 cup of water. Cook over medium heat, stirring until the sugar dissolves. Bring to a boil and cook without stirring until it reaches 240°F (soft-ball stage) on a candy thermometer.

  3. 3

    Combine Mixtures

    Once the sugar mixture reaches temperature, remove it from heat. In a mixing bowl, combine the bloomed gelatin and the hot sugar mixture. Mix on high speed using a stand mixer for about 10 minutes until the mixture becomes thick and fluffy.

  4. 4

    Flavoring and Coloring

    Add vanilla extract, salt, and any additional flavorings or food coloring at this point. Mix until just combined.

  5. 5

    Set the Mixture

    Pour the marshmallow mixture into a greased 9x13 inch pan. Use a spatula to smooth the top. Allow it to sit at room temperature for at least 4 hours or until set.

Coating the Marshmallows

  1. 6

    Prepare the Coating

    In a medium bowl, combine powdered sugar and cornstarch.

  2. 7

    Cut and Coat

    Once the marshmallows are set, dust a clean surface with the powdered sugar mixture. Turn the marshmallow slab out onto the surface and cut into squares or desired shapes. Toss the pieces in the remaining powdered sugar mixture to coat all sides.
