Ingredients
- 1/2 teaspoon vegetable shortening
- 1 10 ounce bag mini marshmallows
- 1/8 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 2 ½ to 2 ¬æ cups powdered sugar
Instructions
- Grease the inside of a medium bowl with the shortening. Add the marshmallows to the bowl and microwave for about 1 minute or until the marshmallows are puffed and soft. Using a rubber spatula, stir the marshmallows to ensure they are all melted. If a few remain, return the bowl to the microwave and heat in 10 second intervals until fully melted. Add the extract and 1 cup of the powdered sugar. Combine using the rubber spatula. Dust a clean counter with some powdered sugar and pour the marshmallow mixture onto the counter. Dust your hands with the powdered sugar as well. Begin to kneed the mixture like bread dough, adding more powdered sugar as the mixture keeps absorbing it until the marshmallow has the smooth texture of play-do and is no longer sticky. Proceed as you would if you are using fondant.
