Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 8 large large marshmallows
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat the Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Prepare the Baking Sheet: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  3. Arrange the Marshmallows: Place the 8 large marshmallows on the baking sheet in a single layer, spaced out evenly.
Cooking
  1. Toast the Marshmallows: Bake for about 5-6 minutes, monitoring closely to ensure they turn golden brown without burning.
  2. Set Aside the Toasted Marshmallows: Remove from the oven and let cool slightly.
  3. Combine Water and Sugar: In a saucepan, combine 1 cup of water and 1 cup of granulated sugar over medium heat.
  4. Add Toasted Marshmallows: Scrape the toasted marshmallows into the saucepan with the water and sugar.
  5. Heat and Whisk: Continue heating over medium heat, whisking until the marshmallows and sugar dissolve into a syrupy mixture, about a few minutes.
  6. Add Vanilla Extract: Remove from heat and whisk in ½ teaspoon of vanilla extract.
  7. Cool the Syrup: Allow the syrup to cool at room temperature for about 15 minutes.
  8. Store the Syrup: Transfer the syrup into a bottle or jar and refrigerate. It can last for up to 2 weeks.

Notes

Keep an eye on the marshmallows while toasting to avoid burning. Shake the syrup bottle before each use and discard if there are any off smells or colors.
