Vegan marshmallows. Unequivocally, undeniable, uncontested, unbelievably probably one of
the most delicious treats on Earth. If you don't know what a marshmallow is, that is
unreal, unwise, and utterly just unresponsible. We're talking teeny finger pillows. Not just soft like
tempur-pedic but more like edible memory foam that also has bounce but will dissolve in your
mouth. Packed with flavor like an atomic sugar bomb from Stark Industries. Yeahhhhh. You can taste it. Let's
make these unappreciated, undisputed and currently undiscovered, by you, homemade vegan marshmallows.

Now typically I would tell you to just prep your pan and move on, but let me explain because
if you mess up this early not a spatula, a knife, a jackhammer, or your mama, gonna
be able to save you. In a medium-sized bowl you're dumping one cup powdered sugar and a
half cup cornstarch. Because you're lazy, use this unrealistically small sieve and whisk
it together. Lightly coat a 9x9 or an 8x8 if you want thicker finger pillows with canola
or another neutral flavored oil. Here's the important part. Might seem excessive but it's
not. Cover the baking pan with this white stuff. Cover it good like it's a Krispy Kreme powdered
donut. Like literally, coat everything and set it aside. And before you move on make sure you give
it a little taste. No, no, no I'm joking. Just just clean it up. Just clean it all up. You're grown man.
Control yourself. Get the stand mixer and if it's as heavy as mine, make sure you turn on your fitbit
or apple watch to track this as a workout. Add in your bean juice, that sounds yummy, Oh and check out
my golden spoon. In cream of tartar. Use a whisk attachment. Now Jeff Gordon, how about you start
your engines on low, and gradually increase it to high as we crush this Daytona 500 that's only
going to last about three to four minutes. Now you could do this with a hand mixer and some normal
attachments, just make sure you have some money in your 401k as it may be time to retire by the
time you're done. This process is done when we have stiff peaks. Stiff like, uh, well I have a comparison
but it's best told at midnight since Drake told me when the hotline bling it could only mean one
thing. Put that aside to sit and get a deep heavy bottom skillet over medium heat. Into the skillet
we're adding agar agar powder. And no I didn't just clear my throat, that's actually the name of the
ingredient. And water. Also check out my golden whisk. Now whisk the ingredients together until
it begins to boil. Let boil for a few minutes to thicken up before moving to the next step.
Since this is a video we could just move to the next step. See, here we go, next step. Whisk in your
corn syrup. You could use another syrup of choice but then I would say good luck with your stupid
expensive finger pillows as I admire how frivolous you are. Just joking. I get mean when I get jealous.
Now cane sugar and keep whisking until it's all happily married. At this point it's a waiting
game. You're going to let the mixture come to a boil. While using a food thermometer to
gauge the temperature 240 degrees fahrenheit or 115 degrees celsius. Warning be patient.
Don't walk away. The temperature can sneak up on you like this groundhog I named Lily that lives
under my deck. I think she likes the name but she keeps running away every time I try to ask her
what's up. Once you're at the right temperature it is time to scramble. A tablespoon of vanilla extract
and a 1/4 teaspoon of salt. Whisk it together. Move quickly but be careful as the syrup is really
hot. Here comes the fun part. Turn your mixer on low and slowly empty the syrup into the bowl. Gradually
increase the speed of your mixer to high as you get closer to depleting all of your syrup. Now
that all your syrup is blended in let the mixer run on high for about five to eight minutes. So I
know I didn't mention we were gonna make this but at this point you have vegan marshmallow fluff. If
you're still looking to make vegan marshmallows, aka teeny finger pillows, empty this fluff into
your powdered donut pan aka baking pan. Be sure to move quickly as this stuff starts to set. Even
this out with a spatula or damp your hands with water and you should be able to level the brick
pretty easily. Let this sit for about 6 to 12 hours and if all went well, you should be able to enjoy.
