Time 5h

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 cup water, divided
3 packets gelatin powder
1 ½ cups granulated sugar
1 cup light corn syrup
¼ teaspoon kosher salt
1 ½ teaspoons vanilla extract
1 teaspoon red gel food coloring
1 teaspoon yellow food coloring
1 teaspoon blue gel food coloring
¼ cup cornstarch
½ cup powdered sugar
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
chocolate graham cracker
honey graham cracker
milk chocolate bar
white chocolate bar

Steps:

  • In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, stir together ½ cup water and the gelatin powder. Let sit for 10 minutes to bloom.
  • In a small pot fitted with a candy thermometer, combine the granulated sugar, corn syrup, and remaining ½ cup water. Cook over medium-high heat, without stirring, until the temperature reaches 240°F (115°C), 15-20 minutes.
  • Turn the mixer speed to medium-low and slowly drizzle the sugar syrup into the bloomed gelatin. Increase the mixer speed to high and whip until the mixture is opaque white and doubled in volume, 8-10 minutes. Add the salt and vanilla and beat for 2 minutes more.
  • Divide the marshmallow mixture evenly between 3 medium bowls. Add the red food coloring to one bowl, yellow food coloring to another, and blue to the last and stir until each bowl is evenly colored.
  • In a small bowl using a fork or whisk, stir together the cornstarch and powdered sugar.
  • Use a pastry brush to evenly grease a nonstick 8-inch square pan with the vegetable oil. Use a small sieve to dust the pan with some of the cornstarch and powdered sugar mixture. Tilt the pan to coat evenly, then tap out any excess.
  • Using ice cream scoops, alternate scooping each color marshmallow into the prepared pan, working quickly so the marshmallow does not begin to set. Swirl the colors together using a skewer or knife. Dust the top with more of the powdered sugar mixture.
  • Let the marshmallows at room temperature, uncovered, for at least 4 hours, up to overnight.
  • Run a butter knife or fish spatula around the edges of the pan to loosen the marshmallow, then invert onto a cutting board. Cut into 9 equal squares. Dust the cut marshmallows all over with more of the powdered sugar mixture to prevent sticking. Store in an airtight container in a cool, dry place for up to 1 month, or freeze for up to 2 months.
  • Make the s'mores: Preheat the oven to 300°F (150°C).
  • Place the marshmallows between chocolate or honey graham crackers with a piece of milk or white chocolate. Toast in the oven for 1-2 minutes, until the marshmallows are just softened and the chocolate is beginning to melt.
  • Enjoy!
