Cindy Bearmans Marshmallow Frosting Recipes

Steps:

• Fill a medium bowl with water and add ice. Add gelatin to ice water and let stand until soft. Drain, squeezing excess water from gelatin, and set aside.
• Meanwhile, in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, beat egg whites on medium speed.
• Place sugar in a medium saucepan along with 1/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon water. Place over medium-high heat and cook, brushing down sides with a pastry brush to prevent crystallization, until liquid reaches 235 degrees on an instant-read thermometer; add gelatin.
• With the mixer on low, slowly add sugar mixture to egg whites. Increase speed to high and beat until stiff peaks form, 10 to 15 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Spray two 9-inch round cake pans with nonstick cooking spray. Line bottom of each pan with a parchment paper round and spray again; set aside.
• In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with paddle attachment, cream together butter and sugar on medium speed until light and fluffy, 5 to 8 minutes. Add cocoa powder and beat until combined, 3 to 5 minutes more, scraping down the sides as necessary.
• In a small bowl, whisk together eggs and egg yolk. With the mixer on low, slowly add eggs, mixing until smooth and well combined, scraping down sides of the bowl as necessary.
• In a large bowl, sift together both flours, salt, baking powder, and baking soda. Add to butter mixture and mix on low speed until combined.
• In a medium bowl, mix together boiling water and oil. With the mixer on low, slowly add water mixture and mix until combined. Divide mixture evenly between prepared cake pans. Transfer to oven and bake until a cake tester inserted into the center comes out clean, 35 to 40 minutes.
• Transfer cakes to wire racks; let cool completely, at least 2 hours. Unmold cakes and remove parchment paper. Using a serrated knife, trim tops of cakes to make level, then cut each cake in half horizontally. Place four strips of parchment paper around perimeter of a serving plate or lazy Susan. Place the bottom side of one bottom half on the cake plate. Evenly spread top with one-third of the ganache. Repeat process twice with top halves of each cake and top with the remaining bottom half of cake bottom-side up. You should have three layers of ganache and four layers of cake.
• Transfer marshmallow frosting to a pastry bag fitted with a plain 5/8-inch round tip (such as Ateco #808). Pipe frosting over cake to cover; evenly spread using an offset spatula. Using a kitchen torch, toast frosting until lightly browned.

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven 375. Grease or spray 8 cup muffin tin Melt butter and put in a small bowl Mix Cinnamon and sugar in a small bowl (save 1 - 2 tbsp to sprinkle on )puffs after the glazing has been drizzled on the puffs).
• 2. Open Crescent rolls, separate into 8 pieces. Dip a marshmallow in melted butter.
• 3. Then roll the marshmallow in cinnamon sugar. Be sure to get well coated with cinnamon sugar.
• 4. Place marshmallow on one crescent triangle and cover the marshmallow with the crescent dough. Be sure to pinch and seal so there are no holes or gaps. Place the marshmallow puff in the muffin tin. Repeat this step for the remaining marshmallows.
• 5. Bake the marshmallow puffs for 15 to 20 minutes until dough is golden brown. Depending on your oven, 15 to 20 minutes.
• 6. GLAZE/ICING: Mix 1 Tbsp melted butter, milk, vanilla or almond extract, powdered sugar. This should be a glazing consistency. If it's too thick to drizzle then just add a bit more milk or if it's too runny add a bit more powdered sugar.
• 7. When marshmallow puffs are golden brown remove from the oven. While still hot carefully remove from the muffin tin onto a rack (you might want to have some wax paper under the rack since there will be some sticky melted marshmallow that will drip onto the counter). While the puffs are still hot and on the rack, drizzle the glaze on the puffs. Immediately sprinkle the remaining cinnamon sugar on the glaze. Let cool for at least 5 minutes before serving. You can easily make ahead of time. Reheat at a low heat (maybe 200 to 250 for a few minutes before serving). We have even frozen and thawed and reheated. This recipe can be easily be double or tripled.
• 8. I had to also post a picture of how these yummy rolls are so gooey on the inside.

Steps:

• In large bowl, beat marshmallow creme, softened butter, vanilla and 1 tablespoon milk with electric mixer on medium speed until blended. Beat in powdered sugar until fluffy. If necessary, beat in more milk, a few drops at a time, until thin enough to spread.
• Fills and frosts 1 (8-inch) two-layer cake.
