Homemade Marshmallow Creme Recipe
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup light corn syrup
- 1/4 cup water
- 1/8 teaspoon fine salt
- 2 large egg whites, at room temperature
- 1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
- 1 1/2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- Stir together the sugar, corn syrup, water, and salt in a small saucepan over high heat.
- Bring to a boil, stirring occasionally, until the mixture reaches 240 degrees F on a candy/fat thermometer.
- Place the egg whites and cream of tartar in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment.
- Start whipping the egg whites to soft peaks on medium speed.
- (The goal is to have the egg whites whipped and ready, waiting for your syrup to be drizzled in.
- If theyre whipping faster than your syrup is coming to temperature, just stop the mixer until the syrup is ready.)
- When the syrup reaches 240 degrees F, reduce the mixer speed to low and slowly drizzle about 2 tablespoons of syrup into the egg whites to warm them.
- (If you add too much syrup at once, the whites will scramble.)
- Slowly drizzle in the rest of the syrup.
- Increase the speed to medium high and whip until the marshmallow creme is stiff and glossy, about 7 minutes.
- Add in the vanilla and whip 2 minutes more.
- Use immediately or refrigerate stored in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks.
