Ingredients
8 oz stale mini marshmallows (if using fresh, see below)5 tbsp water (if using fresh marshmallows, drop this to 3 tbsp)1 tbsp white corn syrup1 tsp English Toffee flavouring (optional, I used LorAnn Oils)1/4 tsp sea salt2 1/4 cups icing sugar (you may need more depending on your marshmallows)Shortening to grease
Directions
Combine the marshmallows, water and corn syrup in a large bowl.
Microwave on HI for 1 minute, then stir and continue microwaving in 30 second bursts until the mixture is more or less melted (mine didn't melt all the way but it works itself out).
Beat in the flavouring (if using) and salt, then add 1 cup of icing sugar to the bowl and beat in.
Grease a smooth countertop (and your hands!) well and scrape the marshmallow mixture onto it.
Top with 1/4 cup more icing sugar and begin to knead it in, adding more icing sugar as needed until the mixture resembles a smooth, supple bread dough.
Wrap well in plastic wrap and store in the fridge up to 3 months, or keep in the freezer up to 1 year.
Defrost completely in the plastic wrap before using.
