These airy and squishy homemade ube marshmallows are perfect for s'mores or adding into hot cocoa for a delicious vanilla-nutty flavor. The recipe combines gelatin, sugar, and a touch of ube extract for a unique treat.
1: Bloom gelatin and water in a stand mixer bowl.
2: In a small bowl, combine confectioner sugar and corn starch.
3: Using a non-stick spray, coat the inside of a 9x9 pan and generously dust with the corn starch mixture.
4: In a small pot, combine granular sugar, salt, water, and corn syrup. Bring to 240°F on medium-low heat.
5: Using the stand mixer with the whisk attachment, slowly pour in the sugar syrup into the gelatin on medium-low speed.
6: Add ube extract and food colouring. Increase the mixer speed to high and whisk for 10 minutes.
7: Pour the marshmallow into the greased pan. Flatten the top with dampened hands. Leave to dry uncovered overnight.
8: Carefully separate from the pan using a spatula and transfer to a cutting board dusted with corn starch mixture.
9: Generously dust the top and slice into desired shapes with a greased knife, dusting all sides to prevent sticking.
10: Store in an airtight container for up to two weeks.
