Marshmallows Recipe

Overview:

  • Name: Marshmallows
  • Category: Dessert
  • Keywords: Lunch/Snacks, Kid Friendly, < 30 Mins, Easy, Inexpensive
  • Total Time: 20 minutes
  • Servings: 1 nine x thirteen Baking Dish

Ingredients:

  • 2 packets unflavored gelatin
  • 1 1/4 cups water
  • 2 cups white sugar
  • Confectioners’ sugar (for dusting)
  • Vanilla extract (optional)

Instructions:

  1. Prepare Gelatin Mixture:

    • In a small bowl, combine the unflavored gelatin with 1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons of water. Stir well until the gelatin is fully dissolved. Set this mixture aside to let it set.
  2. Create Syrup:

    • In a medium saucepan over low heat, combine the white sugar with the remaining 1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons of water. Stir continuously until the sugar is completely dissolved. Once dissolved, remove the syrup from heat and allow it to cool slightly.
  3. Combine Syrup and Gelatin:

    • Once the syrup has cooled down a bit, pour it slowly and carefully into the bowl with the softened gelatin mixture. Use a mixer set to low speed for this step.
  4. Beat Until Fluffy:

    • Gradually increase the mixer speed to high and beat the mixture until it becomes very thick, white, and has almost tripled in volume. This typically takes around 15 minutes of beating. If desired, add vanilla extract during this step and continue beating until fully incorporated.
  5. Set Overnight:

    • Lightly grease a 9×13 inch baking dish, then pour the marshmallow mixture into it, spreading it out evenly. Allow the mixture to set overnight at room temperature. This resting period ensures that the marshmallows firm up nicely.
  6. Cut and Serve:

    • Once fully set, use a sharp knife to cut the marshmallow slab into squares of your desired size. Dust each marshmallow square generously with confectioners’ sugar to prevent sticking. Serve and enjoy these delightful homemade marshmallows!
