Marshmallows Rolled In Toasted Coconut Recipes

Steps:

• Toast coconut in oven for 5 minutes at 350 degrees Fahrenheit; watch carefully to prevent burning.
• Melt the caramels in a double boiler with the condensed milk and butter.
• Stir to combine into a creamy sauce; stir a lot.
• Dip marshmallows in sauce quickly; do not leave a lot of sauce.
• Be careful; sugar burns.
• Roll in toasted coconut or Rice Krispies.
• Let set on waxed paper.

Steps:

• Sprinkle half the toasted coconut in an 8 by 12-inch nonmetal pan. Pour in the marshmallow batter and smooth the top of the mixture with damp hands. Sprinkle on the remaining toasted coconut. Allow to dry uncovered at room temperature overnight.
• Remove the marshmallows from the pan and cut into squares. Roll the sides of each piece carefully in confectioners' sugar. Store uncovered at room temperature.
• Combine the gelatin and 1/2 cup of cold water in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment and allow to sit while you make the syrup.
• Meanwhile, combine the sugar, corn syrup, salt, and 1/2 cup water in a small saucepan and cook over medium heat until the sugar dissolves. Raise the heat to high and cook until the syrup reaches 240 degrees F on a candy thermometer. Remove from the heat.
• With the mixer on low speed, slowly pour the sugar syrup into the dissolved gelatin. Put the mixer on high speed and whip until the mixture is very thick, about 15 minutes. Add the vanilla and mix thoroughly.

Steps:

• Spray an 8-inch square baking pan with cooking spray.
• Mix cold water and gelatin together in a bowl until gelatin is dissolved.
• Bring 3/4 cup water to a boil in a saucepan; add sugar and bring back to a boil. Pour sugar mixture over gelatin mixture; add vanilla extract and salt. Beat with an electric mixer until fluffy, about 20 minutes.
• Spread mixture in the prepared baking pan; chill in the refrigerator for 8 hours to overnight.
