Recipe
Preparation Time: 29 mins
Cook Time: 1 min
Ready Time: 8 hrs 30 mins
- place the butter in a shallow bowl, and set aside.
- place the marshmallows in a large microwave-safe bowl, and microwave on high for 30 seconds to 1 minute to start melting the marshmallows. carefully stir the water and vanilla extract into the hot marshmallows, and stir until the mixture is smooth. slowly beat in the confectioners' sugar, a cup at a time, until you have a sticky dough. reserve 1 cup of powdered sugar for kneading. the dough will be very stiff.
- rub your hands thoroughly with butter, and begin kneading the sticky dough. as you knead, the dough will become workable and pliable. turn the dough out a working surface dusted with confectioners' sugar and continue kneading until the fondant is smooth and no longer sticky to the touch, 5 to 10 minutes.
- form the fondant into a ball, wrap it tightly in plastic wrap, and refrigerate overnight. to use, allow the fondant to come to room temperature, and roll it out a flat surface dusted with confectioners' sugar.
