So, I finished making my first batch of homemade marshmallows last night… drumroll please…
They turned out FANTASTIC!!! I am totally obsessed now with tweaking and perfecting the recipe, really making it my own. I made plain jane vanilla marshmallows and split the batch in half. One half I coated with powdered sugar, but the other half I coated in a combination of cinnimon sugar and pumpkin pie spice. Let me just say, these taste amazing in hot cocoa! My daughter tested them out over the grill for a yummy roasted marshmallow treat- well, you can see the picture!
We like to call these mmmmmmmmmmmMarshmallows!
These luscious vanilla marshmallows are just waiting for a hot cup of cocoa to dunk in!
So at the end of the day, I was really pleased with the results. I’m looking forward to trying some different flavoring options. My next big project will be to create a hot cocoa mix to go with them. Christmas presents anyone? I’m super excited!!!
