Homemade Marshmallows
Soft, fluffy homemade marshmallows made with simple ingredients-perfect for hot cocoa or roasting by the fire!
Ingredients
Method
- Combine beef gelatin and 1/2 cup of the water in a stand mixer, fitted with the whisk attachment. Stir to combine and set aside to hydrate.
- Add the honey and the remaining water into a saucepan. Bring to a simmer and allow to simmer for 20 minutes, or until it reaches the softball stage on a candy thermometer which is 235°F-240°F.
- Slowly drizzle the honey mixture into the gelatin mixture. Run the mixer on low and continue to mix until they're well combined and light in color.
- Add in the vanilla extract.
- Add in the powdered sugar, one cup at a time, until all has been added. Whip the mixture on medium speed until it's light and fluffy.
- Transfer mixture into a well-buttered baking dish. An 8×8 pan works great for this.
- Allow the marshmallows to cool to room temperature. They can be cut as desired. Toss the cut marshmallows in powdered sugar to keep them from sticking together and store in an air tight container at room temperature. Enjoy!
