Recipe for ,
Chocolate Marshmallow Fondant (Choco MMF)
Posted by TheCakeStylist under Fondant, Icing Recipes
Follow instructions on the MMF recipe. You will add the following ingredients to the recipe:

1 oz (28g)melted semi-sweet or bittersweet chocolate**
1 tbsp cocoa powder (it can be either Dutch-process or natural the later will give a more pronounced flavor)
Instructions

Follow Instructions on MMF recipe from Step1 to 3, for melting the marshmallow. Once these are melted, stir melted chocolate in a mixing bowl until well incorporated. Set aside.
Here is the change to the MMF recipe. Instead of just adding the sugar, place the sugar in a small mixing bowl and sift the cocoa powder in a small mesh strainer over the sugar. Mix the dry ingredients.
Proceed to step four, sift sugar and cocoa mix over the melted marshmallow and continue the instructions, i.e., mix until well incorporated.
Continue with the kneading (this is hot- wait until it cools a little or start kneading with a spoon until safe to the touch).

*Variations to this recipe:
** You can also use white chocolate by substituting 1 oz of semi-sweet chocolate and 1 tbsp of cocoa powder with 2 oz(56g) of white chocolate.

Marshmallow Fondant Recipe (MMF)

Ingredients: * 1 lb(454g) of Mini Marshmallows (easier to melt) * 1 tsp Clear Vanilla Extract * 1tsp No Color Butter Flavor * 2 tbsp of Water * 2 lbs(908g) of Powdered Sugar (sifted) * A little bit of shortening


Instructions:

1. Grease a microwaveable bowl with shortening. Add all mini marshmallows, clear vanilla, butter flavoring and water.

2. Microwave for 60 seconds. Remove from microwave and stir until completely melted with fork.

3. If all the mini marshmallows don't melt after stirring, return to microwave for 30 seconds and sitr (repeat in itervals if necessary) - this step is usually not necesary for me.

4. Add the powdered sugar gradually (you might not need all the sugar) and process at low speed until well incorporated, then increase speed (if you don't have a stand mixer, mix with fork until well incorporated then knead).

5. Powder surface with powder sugar. Knead marshmallow mix (careful, it might be hot at this point so knead with fork until it cools down a bit. You can grease your hands if you like to avoid marshmallow sticking to your hands). Kneading should not take long.

6. If the mix is too sticky, then add more sugar until it becomes firmer.

7. Knead into a loaf (it will be a little bit soft at this point but don't worry). Wrap in plastic and cool for one hour (it will get firmer then).

8. You can store on dry place or refrigerator (it will store for weeks).

[bigheadmagicmad]

@animegirlkat

[zum863]

i've read that some people refrigerate their fondant overnight before use. is that necessary? how do you store your fondont? how long does it keep for?

[bigheadmagicmad]

@zum863

I heard about that too! i made this fondant once only, but i think you don't need to keep in the fridge.

I just let it rest for few hours before rolling it to cover the cake. For the left over you can keep in the fridge.

I think it can keep very long. I know sugar never go bad if you keep it well.:).

Thank You so much for posting this recipe up...I've tried the marshmallow fondant several times and it tastes sooo much better than the store bought Wilton fondant...and it works great for molding, too...I mixed banana flavoring to the last batch I made and the fondant tasted like the orange circus peanuts...Can't wait to try the chocolate version of this recipe!!!!
