HOMEMADE COCONUT MARSHMALLOWS



Homemade Coconut Marshmallows image

This is my favorite time of year to make old-fashioned treats. And while there are so many wonderful traditional Christmas cookies, I like to make something no one is expecting: my homemade coconut marshmallows. Grocery-store marshmallows are fine for toasting s'mores, but once you've tasted a homemade marshmallow, you'll never go back to store-bought. And you won't believe how easy they are to make! All I do is put a mixture of gelatin and water in an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment and slowly mix in sugar syrup and flavorings. Then I pour the mixture into a pan, let the marshmallows set on the counter overnight and cut them into squares in the morning. These, made with pure vanilla extract and toasted coconut, are my favorite; they're lighter than air and they just melt in your mouth. I'm thinking Santa might even be delighted to find these waiting when he comes down the chimney-unless the kids eat them first!

Time 1h

Yield Makes 36

Number Of Ingredients 9

250g butter , softened
140g golden caster sugar
1 egg
1 tsp vanilla extract
300g plain flour
100g desiccated coconut
about 175g raspberry jam
18 large pink and white marshmallows , cut in half across the middle
25g desiccated coconut

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 190C/fan 170C/gas 5. Beat butter, sugar, egg and vanilla together with a pinch of salt until smooth. Fold in the flour and coconut to form a dough.

  • To sandwich the biscuits, lay half out on a baking sheet, under-side up. Put ½ tsp jam onto each one, top with a piece of marshmallow, then bake for 2½ mins or until just melted. Remove from oven, then quickly top with the other biscuits, pressing down so that the marshmallow sticks them together and just oozes out. Cool for 10 mins. Put the coconut and remaining jam onto plates, dip the edges in the jam, then roll in the coconut. Will keep in an airtight tin for up to 3 days.

Good Food reader Alice Colley shares her recipe for this Northern Irish fridge cake with digestives, marshmallows and glacé cherries

Provided by Good Food team

Categories     Afternoon tea, Treat

Time 20m

Yield Makes 15

Number Of Ingredients 5

15 digestive biscuits
15 marshmallows
15 glacé cherries, cut in half
about 200ml condensed milk
100g desiccated coconut, to coat

Steps:

  • Crush the digestive biscuits in a food processor or in a plastic bag with a rolling pin, then put them in a large mixing bowl. Chop each marshmallow into 4 pieces and add to the bowl with the cherries and 175ml condensed milk. Mix until the ingredients are well combined and you have a sticky mixture. If it's too dry, add a splash more condensed milk.
  • Sprinkle most of the coconut over a large piece of cling film (or foil). Tip the mixture onto the coconut and shape into a long sausage, about 30 x 5cm. Sprinkle more coconut over the top of it and wrap the cling film tightly around, twisting the ends together. Leave in the fridge to chill for 4-6 hrs, then cut into 15 slices and serve. Will keep in the fridge for up to 1 week wrapped in cling film.

Tips:

  • Use fresh coconut: Fresh coconut meat has a sweeter and more delicate flavor than dried coconut. If you can't find fresh coconut, you can use unsweetened shredded coconut, but the flavor will be less intense.
  • Don't overcook the marshmallows: The marshmallows should be melted but still fluffy. If you overcook them, they will become tough and chewy.
  • Chill the log before serving: This will help the log to set and make it easier to slice.

Conclusion:

The coconut mallow log is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. It is a combination of sweet and fluffy marshmallows, chewy coconut, and rich chocolate. Follow the tips above to make the best coconut mallow log possible.
