Ingredients
- 1 bag mini marshmallows
- 2 lb bag of powdered sugar
- 1-2 Tablespoons water
Preparation
Step 1
First, put the mini marshmallows into a microwave safe glass bowl. Then pour the water over the marshmallows.
Now microwave for a minute. Next, give it a stir. It usually needs another 30 seconds to a minute more in the microwave to become totally smooth. I do it 30 seconds at a time to not over do it or your fondant will become too stiff. Next you mix in the powdered sugar a little bit at a time. I always use a wooden spoon because it becomes so thick that it bends metal spoons. Stir until it becomes a very thick dough like consistency. Everyone has a different opinion of how sticky or hard it should be. I’ve played around with it long enough I know what I like. It doesn’t quite take the entire bag of powdered sugar for mine.
When I color it I use a gel food coloring you can get in craft stores in the decorating section.
I knead it into the fondant with gloves on or it dyes your hands. I knead it like I would dough until colored all the way through.
