Recipes in four sentences
If you're stuck for a quick, easy, inexpensive foodie treat for adults and kids alike, look no further than these big, fat, squishy clouds of marshmallow. You can tint them any colour, add little embellishments and package them prettily and they look truly gourmet. I've seen little bags of fat marshmallows selling for $22 for 4, so there's no need to feel like you're gifting anything but the best.
Here's the recipe in a few sentences:
3 cups white granulated sugar in a large bowl, 2 heaped tablespoons gelatine dissolved in 1 1/2 cups boiling water added to the sugar. Beat with an electric mixer till sugar is completely dissolved. Add food colouring and 2 teaspoons vanilla essence. Pour into lined square tin. Allow to set. Cut into squares and toss in cornflour and icing sugar sifted together.
Yummy :)
