- If you don't have a candy thermometer, you can test the caramel by dropping a small amount into a bowl of cold water. If it forms a soft ball, it is ready.
- To make the marshmallows easier to handle, coat your hands with butter or cooking spray.
- If you want to make the marshmallows even more decadent, you can add a tablespoon of chocolate chips or chopped nuts.
- Store the marshmallows in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two weeks.
