Homemade Marshmallow Creme Recipe - (4.6/5) image

Provided by Foodiewife

Number Of Ingredients 6

3 large egg whites, room temperature
2/3 cup plus 2 tablespoons sugar, divided
1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar
3/4 cup light corn syrup
1/3 cup water
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Steps:

  • In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, beat egg whites and cream of tartar together until light and frothy. With the mixer running, slowly pour in 2 tablespoons sugar; beat until soft peaks form. Set aside. In a small saucepan, combine 1/3 cup water, corn syrup, and remaining 2/3 cup sugar. Place over medium heat and cook until boiling. Cook, stirring, until mixture reaches the soft-ball stage, about 240°F on a candy thermometer, about 6 minutes. Immediately remove from heat. With the mixer on low, slowly add hot syrup to egg-white mixture. Increase mixer speed to high and continue beating for 5 minutes. Add vanilla and continue to beat until mixture looks like marshmallow cream, about 1 minute more. Allow to cool, then spoon into an air-tight container. Can be stored in the fridge for up to a month.

Categories     Dessert

Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 4

4 large egg whites
1 cup (200g) granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Place egg whites, sugar, and cream of tartar in a heatproof bowl. Set bowl over a saucepan filled with two inches of simmering water. Do not let it touch the water. (You can use a double boiler if you have one.)
  • Whisk constantly until sugar is dissolved and mixture has thinned out, about 4 minutes. The mixture will be thick and tacky at first, then thin out and appear frothy on top. To test that it's ready, you can use your finger or an instant read thermometer. Lightly and quickly dip your finger (it's very hot, be careful) and rub the mixture between your thumb and finger. You shouldn't feel any sugar granules. If using a thermometer, the temperature should read 160°F (71°C).
  • Remove from heat. (No need to let it cool down before continuing.) Add the vanilla extract, then using a handheld or stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment, beat on high speed until stiff glossy peaks form, about 5 minutes.
  • Meringue can be spread, piped, or swirled onto cakes, cupcakes, and other confections. Serve immediately OR torch it with a kitchen torch for a delicious toasted marshmallow topping. (Do not place in the oven under the broiler- it will melt.)
  • Cover and store leftovers for up to 2 days in the refrigerator. Baked goods topped with this marshmallow meringue can be left at room temperature for up to 6-8 hours. After that, it's best to refrigerate or else the topping will begin to wilt. For best taste, texture, and appearance, I do not recommend freezing this.

Tips:

  • Use a candy thermometer to ensure the sugar syrup reaches the correct temperature. This will help prevent the marshmallow creme from becoming too thick or too thin.
  • Make sure the gelatin mixture is completely dissolved before adding it to the sugar syrup. Otherwise, you may end up with lumps in your marshmallow creme.
  • Beat the marshmallow creme on high speed until it is light and fluffy. This will help incorporate air into the mixture and give it a smooth, creamy texture.
  • If you want a thicker marshmallow creme, you can add more gelatin. If you want a thinner marshmallow creme, you can add more water.
  • Store the marshmallow creme in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
