Making Marshmallows – a sneak peek
I’ve been a fan of Brownie Points ever since reading the post on Homemade Magic Shell (check it out!) and bookmarked the Basic Marshmallow recipe probably a year ago. However, I had ingredient issues, the grocery stores around my old apartment never ever had gelatin. Seriously!
When we moved to this apartment the tiny C-Town, two blocks away, turned out to have an awesome Baking aisle! Finally, stocked with gelatin, I made Marshmallows today! They are simple to make but a sticky affair, mind you.
They also take 10-12 hours to set so the end product post will in a few. For now, I will leave you with a shot of Betty (my Kitchenaid) whipping that Marshmallow into fluffiness.

Looking forward to your mallow-flavor adventures!
It’s been a awhile since I’ve made some.
a fun surprise I had was when I substituted brown sugar in the recipe… it made real butterscotch flavored marshmallows. Heaven.
have fun!

So glad they worked out for you. I am hesitant to try, but have always wanted to. I know big red can do the work (my mixer) She hasn’t let me down yet. I want to do chocolate ones. yummm
