Homemade marshmallows in the microwave with just 4 ingredients. So good & easy you'll never buy them in a bag again. You do need a good stand mixer and candy thermometer for this recipe. You can use any flavorings/extracts in place of vanilla to make flavored marshmallows, or substitute other liquids like coffee & cocoa for the water to soften the gelatin.
