Make a batch, layer them in a jar, and gift them (or... keep them all to yourself, no judgment).
Ingredients
1/2 cup filtered water (for blooming)
1/2 cup filtered water (for cherry syrup)
3 tbsp grass fed gelatin - I use NesProteins Beef Gelatin
1 cup frozen or fresh cherries, pitted
1/2 cup maple syrup
Desiccated coconut, for coating marshmallows
1/2 cup dark chocolate, for melting
1 tsp coconut oil
Preparation
Step 1
Pour ½ cup filtered water into a stand mixer bowl. Sprinkle over gelatin and let bloom for 10 minutes.
Step 2
In a saucepan, combine cherries, 1/2 cup filtered water, and maple syrup. Heat over medium high for 5–8 minutes, stirring and gently mashing the cherries as they soften.
Step 3
Slowly pour the warm cherry mixture into the bloomed gelatin while the mixer is on low. Gradually increase to high and beat for about 8 minutes, until fluffy and glossy like marshmallow fluff.
Step 4
Quickly spread the mixture into a lined deep dish. Work fast — it sets quickly! Refrigerate for roughly 1-2 hours, until firm and bouncy (not wet to the touch).
Step 5
Tear for a rustic look or slice into pieces.
Step 6
In a bowl, toss some marshmallows in desiccated coconut. Cover and refrigerate.
Step 7
In a small bowl, melt dark chocolate with coconut oil in 30 second intervals in the microwave. Dip marshmallows and place on a silicone sheet. Chill until set.
Step 8
In a jar or container, layer the plain, coconut coated, and chocolate dipped marshmallows for a fun, gift worthy look.
Enjoy 💕
