Homemade Marshmallow Ropes Recipe

Homemade marshmallow ropes are a tasty and fun treat that you can make at home. These marshmallows are ideal for snacking, dipping in chocolate, or roasting over an open flame. They're soft and fluffy, with a delicious vanilla flavor.

Ingredients

1/4 tsp salt
1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
1/2 cup powdered sugar
2 tbsp unflavored gelatin
1/2 cup hot water
1/2 cup cold water
3/4 cup cornstarch
1 cup light corn syrup
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Time Needed

Prep Time: 30 minutes
Cook Time: 15 minutes
Total Time: 45 minutes

Instructions

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and generously dust with a cornstarch-powdered sugar mixture.
Combine the gelatin and cold water in a small bowl.
Allow for 5 minutes to soften.
Combine the granulated sugar, corn syrup, hot water, and salt in a medium saucepan.
Stir the mixture until the sugar has dissolved and it is smooth.
Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally.
When it begins to boil, reduce the heat to low and leave it to simmer for 15 minutes.
Remove the mixture from the heat after 15 minutes and stir in the softened gelatin mixture until it dissolves.
Whisk in the vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth.
Smooth the mixture out with a spatula on the prepared baking sheet.
Allow the marshmallow mixture to set for at least 4 hours, or overnight, before dusting with more cornstarch and powdered sugar.
When the marshmallow has hardened, remove it from the baking sheet and cut it into long ropes.
Dust each rope with more cornstarch and powdered sugar and store in an airtight container until ready to serve.
