Mint Marshmallow
Mint Marshmallow
As I gazed out at the pouring rain on a rather slow afternoon, I tried to think of what things go together. What combination of items would go amazing together as a pair to create something way better than if they were just plain individuals.
Mash and gravy...
Ketchup and chips...
Peanut butter and jelly...
Cookies and milk...
Fried chicken and octo-vinaigrette...
Green tea and red beans...
And...Hot chocolate and marshmallow!
Why didnt I think of it earlier?
The wet and gloomy Sydney weather is perfect for hot chocolate with marshmallows...even better, mint-flavoured marshmallows! (Inspired by peppermint hot chocolate from Starbucks).
The recipe can be found here and instead of 1 tablespoon of vanilla, I added 1 tablespoon of mint flavouring and a few drops of green food colouring (roughly around 5 drops).
The clip-on thermometer was a good investment as I no longer have to hold it there while my hand burns!
Cutting it up after sitting at least for 6 hrs
I always have problem storing my marshmallows for some reasons. If I store them in an air-tight container, usually by the next day theyd get sticky and wet and not dry and fluffy like theyre supposed to be. Maybe Ill figure it out next time I make it again...should be soon as the weather is only going to get colder ;)
