The Ingredients for Toasted Marshmallow Creamer
When it comes to making this delicious toasted marshmallow creamer, you’re going to love how simple and accessible it is. Here’s what you need:
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup milk
- 1/2 cup toasted marshmallow syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup sugar (optional)
- A pinch of sea salt (optional)
- A sprinkle of cocoa powder (optional)
Let’s Get Cooking!
Now that we’ve gathered our ingredients, it’s time to turn this delicious idea into reality. Here’s how I make this amazing toasted marshmallow creamer:
Step-by-Step Instructions
Combine cream and milk: In a medium saucepan, pour in the heavy cream and milk over medium heat. Stir gently until combined. You’ll want to see a creamy blend, with no separation. This usually takes about 2-3 minutes.
Add marshmallow syrup and vanilla: Stir in the toasted marshmallow syrup and vanilla extract, keeping the mixture stirred frequently. Oh my gosh, the smell! That toasted marshmallow aroma will start wafting through your kitchen, and trust me, you’ll be fighting the urge to sip it right away! Continue stirring for another 3-5 minutes.
Sweeten it up: If you’re using it, add the sugar and stir until dissolved. This should only take about 1-2 minutes. You’re looking for a consistent sweetness throughout.
Cool it down: Remove the saucepan from heat and let the mixture sit at room temperature for about 10 minutes to cool down. This step is crucial if you don’t want to pour hot creamer into your coffee, trust me, you want to avoid that!
Refrigerate it: Once cooled, transfer the mixture to an airtight container and refrigerate until you’re ready to use it. It’ll keep well for about 1-2 weeks, if it lasts that long!
Serve and enjoy: This creamer is delightful in coffee, hot chocolate, drizzled over ice cream, or even enjoyed straight from the container (I know you’re tempted!). You’ll want to stir it again before using since it can settle a bit.
