Toasted Marshmallow Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• For the vanilla brown butter cake: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line the bottom of a 13-by-18-inch baking sheet with parchment paper.
• In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, combine the powdered sugar, almond flour, all-purpose flour and egg whites and mix on low until the ingredients combine without any visible lumps, approximately 1 minute.
• Meanwhile, put the butter and scraped vanilla bean seeds in a 2-quart saucepan and cook on high heat, whisking occasionally. As the mixture cooks, the butter will begin to brown and it will start to smell amazing, about 15 minutes! The longer the butter and vanilla stay on the heat, the more "nutty" the final flavor will become. So cook it to your preference. Strain the mixture through a fine-mesh strainer into a bowl, reserving the brown butter.
• Turn the stand mixer to the lowest speed and stream the hot brown butter into the batter, mixing for approximately 2 minutes.
• Transfer the cake batter to the prepared baking sheet and bake until a cake tester comes out clean, 8 to 10 minutes. Let cool, then cut into rectangles about 4 inches by 1 1/2 inches.
• For the toasted marshmallow sauce: In a small saucepan, combine the granulated sugar and 1/4 cup water and mix until the sugar is dissolved. Add the corn syrup to the sugar/water mixture. If there are any granules of sugar on the side of the saucepan, brush them down using a pastry brush dipped in water.
• Add the egg whites to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment. Mix the egg whites on high speed until soft peaks appear, then turn the mixer down to medium speed.
• Place the saucepan on medium-high heat and cook the sugar mixture to thread stage, approximately 234 degrees F. Turn the stand mixer to high speed and stream in the cooked sugar. Continue to mix the meringue on high speed until the outside of the bowl feels cool to the touch, approximately 5 minutes.
• For the spring fruit and berry compote: Combine the blueberries, raspberries, strawberries, figs, granulated sugar and mint in a mixing bowl and toss together. Let stand at least 5 minutes
• For the mint oil: Put the oil and mint in a blender and blend for 1 to 1 1/2 minutes. Transfer to a saucepan, slowly bring to a simmer and cook for 1 to 2 minutes. Strain with a fine-mesh strainer, then let cool. Transfer the cooled mixture to a squeeze bottle.
• To assemble: Spoon and drag about 2 tablespoons of the marshmallow onto each plate and toast the top with a kitchen blowtorch. Place a rectangle of cake on top of each, then divide the fruit among the cakes. Decorate the plates with the mint oil from the squeeze bottle.

Steps:

• Thread the marshmallows onto 2 disposable chopsticks and cook over the open flame of a stove until toasted all over, about 2 minutes. (Alternatively, line the baking sheet of a toaster oven with foil coated in nonstick spray, add the marshmallows and broil, flipping once, until golden brown, about 2 minutes per side.)
• Combine the sugar and 1 cup water in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil and simmer over medium heat until the sugar is dissolved, about 3 minutes.
• Reduce the heat to low and add the toasted marshmallows to the saucepan. Cook, stirring continuously and turning down the heat if the mixture starts to bubble up around the edges of the saucepan, until the marshmallows are completely dissolved into an opaque mixture, 5 to 7 minutes.
• Strain the mixture through a fine-mesh strainer and whisk in the vanilla extract and salt. Cool completely Store in the refrigerator in an airtight container for up to 1 month.

Steps:

• Poke a marshmallow onto a skewer, making sure the skewer pierces at least halfway through the marshmallow. Toast the marshmallow evenly on all sides, including the bottom, over medium heat. (Alternately, preheat the broiler and evenly space the marshmallows on a baking sheet. Broil until slightly charred and puffed.)
• Place the marshmallow toasted-side up on a plate and let cool slightly, about 30 seconds. Carefully remove the inside of the marshmallow with a small metal spoon, being careful not to rip the marshmallow; transfer the insides to a microwave-safe bowl. Repeat with the remaining marshmallows. Place the hollowed marshmallow shells in the fridge until slightly firm, about 5 minutes.
• Microwave the bowl of marshmallow insides until slightly melted, about 30 seconds. Mix in the prepared chocolate pudding and liqueur, if using, until well combined.
• Transfer the mixture to a resealable plastic bag or pastry bag and trim the tip off. Pipe the mixture into each marshmallow. Chill until the mixture becomes slightly firm, about 10 minutes.
• When ready to serve, drizzle with chocolate syrup, then sprinkle with crushed graham crackers and top with whipped cream.

Steps:

• Put the chocolate, butter, cream and milk into a saucepan, then heat gently, stirring occasionally, until the chocolate is melted and the sauce is smooth. Thread marshmallows onto skewers, then carefully toast on the fire, or leave until cold. Dip into the fondue and eat straight away.

Steps:

• In a small saucepan, combine corn syrup and sugar with 1/4 cup water. Bring to a boil over high heat, and clip on a candy thermometer. Continue to boil, occasionally brushing the sides of the pan with a pastry brush dipped in water to prevent stray granules of sugar from crystallizing.
• Meanwhile, in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, whip egg whites until medium peaks form. When the syrup reaches 238 degrees (soft-ball stage), after about 7 minutes, remove from heat. With mixer running at medium speed, very slowly pour the syrup down the side of the bowl of egg whites in a steady stream, beating until syrup is fully incorporated and sauce is shiny and fluffy. Serve.

Steps:

• BRING the cream to a boil in a small saucepan over medium-high heat.
• REDUCE the heat and stir in the marshmallow cream until smooth.
• REMOVE from the heat and stir in the vanilla and bottled smoke. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven's broiler and place an oven rack a few inches below it. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly grease the parchment.
• Spread out mini marshmallows on the baking sheet in an even layer, and put under the broiler until browned and toasted, about 30 seconds. Remove from heat and allow to cool.
• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C) and place an oven rack in the middle of the oven. Line a 9-inch round cake pan with parchment paper and lightly grease it.
• Whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt in a small bowl.
• Cream together toasted mini marshmallows, butter, oil, sugar, and marshmallow crème in a large bowl with an electric mixer until thoroughly incorporated and smooth, 2 to 3 minutes. Beat in egg whites, 1 at a time, mixing well after each addition. Mix in vanilla and almond extracts. Stir in half of the flour mixture until just combined. Mix in buttermilk until just combined. Stir in remaining flour mixture until just combined.
• Pour batter into the prepared cake pan, and spread into an even layer.
• Bake in the preheated oven until the top springs back lightly when touched, 35 to 40 minutes. Allow cake to cool in the pan for 10 to 15 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Steps:

• Place marshmallows in top of double boiler, add cream and heat over simmering water until marshmallows are almost melted.
• Add vanilla and continue folding till smooth.
• Serve hot, as a sauce.
• It thickens as it cools.
