Homemade Marshmallow Creme

Ingredients

  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup light corn syrup
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 2 large egg whites
  • 1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Instructions

  1. Start by whipping up your egg whites. In a large bowl, beat the egg whites and cream of tartar together until stiff peaks form. You want them to stand tall and proud, just like you after a good hair day!
  2. In a saucepan over medium heat, combine granulated sugar, corn syrup, and water. Stir it gently until the sugar has dissolved. Then, let it simmer away without stirring for about 5 minutes or until it reaches the soft-ball stage (around 240°F). If you don’t have a candy thermometer, just drop a small amount into a glass of cold water; it should form a soft ball.
  3. Once you hit the magic temperature, carefully pour the syrup into the whipped egg whites while beating on medium speed. Be sure to drizzle slowly so your egg whites don’t deflate!
  4. Keep whipping the mixture for about 5-7 minutes or until the bowl feels cool to the touch. You want that creme fluffy and meringue-like, not warm and sad!
  5. Add in the vanilla extract and salt, and mix well. Voilà! Your marshmallow creme is ready to spread, dip, or indulge!
  6. Store the marshmallow creme in an airtight container in the fridge, but let’s be honest – it probably won’t last long because you’ll want to gobble it up as soon as you make it!

Now that you have this delectable recipe, the only question remains: how many scoops can you fit in your mouth at once? Enjoy your marshmallow adventure!
