Yield Makes about 4 dozen candies

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 cups unsweetened dried coconut
3 (1/4-ounces) envelopes unflavored gelatin
1 cup water, divided
1 1/2 cups sugar
1 cup light corn syrup
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon coconut extract
Equipment: a 9-inch square metal baking pan; a stand mixer fitted with whisk attachment; a candy thermometer

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F with rack in middle.
  • Toast coconut in a shallow baking pan in oven, stirring occasionally, until golden, 7 to 10 minutes.
  • Oil 9-inch baking pan, then sprinkle bottom with 1/2 cup toasted coconut.
  • Sprinkle gelatin over 1/2 cup water in bowl of mixer and let soften while making syrup.
  • Heat sugar, corn syrup, salt, and remaining 1/2 cup water in a small heavy saucepan over low heat, stirring until sugar has dissolved. Bring to a boil over medium heat, without stirring, washing any sugar crystals down side of pan with a pastry brush dipped in cold water. Put thermometer into syrup and continue boiling, without stirring, until it registers 240°F (soft-ball stage). Remove from heat and let stand until bubbles dissipate.
  • With mixer at low speed, pour hot syrup into gelatin in a thin stream down side of bowl. Increase speed to high and beat until very thick, about 15 minutes. Add vanilla and coconut extracts and beat 1 minute more.
  • Spoon marshmallow over toasted coconut in baking pan and press evenly with dampened fingertips to smooth top (it will be very sticky), then evenly sprinkle top with 1/2 cup toasted coconut.
  • Let stand, uncovered, at room temperature until firm, about 2 hours.
  • Run a sharp knife around edge of marshmallow and invert onto a cutting board. Cut into 3/4-inch-wide strips, then cut each strip into 3/4-inch squares.
  • Put remaining toasted coconut in a small bowl and dredge marshmallows in it to coat completely.

AUNT NICOLE'S MARSHMALLOW SQUARES



Aunt Nicole's Marshmallow Squares image

This is the original recipe and gives a 9" pan. I double everything. That way, I'm not stuck with ½ bag of marshmallows and ½ box of Social Tea. These freeze extremely well and can be served right from the freezer.

Categories     Bar Cookie

Time 55m

Yield 36 squares

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 eggs
1 cup white sugar
3/4 cup butter (margarine ok)
0.5 (250 g) bag mini marshmallows (white)
0.5 (350 g) box of social tea biscuits (one sleeve)

Steps:

  • In a double boiler mix eggs, sugar and butter and cook for 25 minutes.
  • Remove and let cool (not cold, just cool so marshmallows don't melt and loose shape).
  • Add ½ box of Social Tea (crushed or powdered).
  • I use my food processor but before I had one I used the rolling pin and crushed the biscuits between a clean, dry dish cloth or in a freezer ziplock.
  • Add ½ bag of white mini marshmallows.
  • Grease pan with margarine or butter before adding mix.
  • Gives a square 9" pan. Let cool.
  • Note: I double everything and it works well. I use a long rectangular Tupperware or pyrex dish.
