These Donut Marshmallows are a delightful treat that combines the fluffy goodness of marshmallows with the flavors of donuts. They are perfect for snacking, adding to hot cocoa, or gifting to friends and family.
Ingredients: 3/4 cup granulated sugar. 1/2 cup water. 3 envelopes unflavored gelatin about 2.5 tbsp. 1/2 cup light corn syrup. 1/4 teaspoon salt. 2 teaspoons vanilla extract. 1/2 cup powdered sugar for dusting. 1/4 cup cocoa powder for dusting. 1/4 cup finely crushed graham crackers for dusting. 1/4 cup colorful sprinkles for decoration.
Instructions: Place the granulated sugar and 1/4 cup of water in a mixing bowl. Mix thoroughly. Sprinkle the gelatin over the remaining 1/4 cup of water in a different bowl. Give it roughly five minutes to bloom. The corn syrup and salt should be combined in a saucepan over medium heat. Do not stir as you bring it to a boil. Utilize a candy thermometer to attain 240F 115C. Stirring continuously, slowly pour the hot syrup into the sugar mixture. Stir the mixture after adding the bloomed gelatin until it dissolves completely. Beat the mixture on high speed for 10 to 12 minutes, or until it thickens and becomes fluffy, using an electric mixer. Mix in the vanilla extract after adding it. Dust a 9 x 9 inch 23 x 23 cm square baking pan with powdered sugar and line it with parchment paper. Using a spatula, level the top of the marshmallow mixture once it has been poured into the prepared pan. Sift the powdered sugar and cocoa powder mixture evenly over the marshmallow surface. Top with a scattering of crushed graham crackers. Once the marshmallows are firm and no longer sticky to the touch, let them set for about four to six hours, or overnight. After the marshmallow solidifies, take it out of the pan and use cookie cutters designed like doughnuts to cut it into the desired shapes. Add colorful sprinkles to each donut marshmallow for decoration. Present and savor your mouthwatering Donut Marshmallows!
