Bubblegum Marshmallow Bars (Print Version)
# Ingredients:
01 -
2 cups powdered sugar
02 -
1 cup marshmallow fluff
03 -
1 cup bubblegum-flavored syrup
04 -
Pink food coloring (optional)
05 -
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
# Instructions:
01 -
Take a large bowl and plop in the marshmallow fluff along with the bubblegum syrup. Stir gently with a flexible spatula until the two blend into a light, fluffy mixture. To avoid frustration with stickiness, add a spritz of non-stick spray to your spatula before you begin.
02 -
Add half a cup of powdered sugar at a time to the fluffy mix. Stir well after each addition. As more sugar goes in, the texture will shift from sticky to soft and dough-like. Continue until it’s all mixed and you can press it into shape easily without it sticking everywhere.
03 -
Pour in the vanilla extract and stir until it’s evenly blended. If you’re feeling creative, toss in a couple of drops of pink food coloring and combine it until the color looks consistent. The pink makes it pop visually, but there’s no pressure—it’s totally optional.
04 -
Line a small square dish, like an 8x8-inch pan, with parchment paper so some sticks out at the edges for easy lifting later. Push the bubblegum dough into the pan and smooth it out evenly using either your spatula or damp hands. Cover and refrigerate it for a couple of hours, or until it’s firm and easy to cut.
05 -
Once the mixture has set, use the parchment to lift it out of the pan. Place it on a cutting board and slice into squares or rectangles with a sharp knife. For a cleaner look, sprinkle some powdered sugar onto the cut edges to keep them from sticking. Arrange the treats on a plate and enjoy watching them disappear!
