Honey Marshmallows S'mores

When I stumbled upon a recipe for honey marshmallow s'mores, my eyes lit up. I had never heard of honey marshmallows, but it sounded delicious. What marshmallows were always lacking for me was flavor. For this recipe, I decided to use the Macadamia Nut Blossom honey because it has a smooth, almost maple syrup flavor that compliments chocolate and graham crackers perfectly. 

This recipe is a slight variation to a recipe I found at cloudykitchen.com. I highly recommend checking out this food blog for more delicious recipes.

 Honey marshmallow smores recipe

Ingredients:

Honey Marshmallows

  • 0.75oz or 3 packets of gelatine
  • 4oz cold water
  • 14oz Macadamia Nut blossom honey (liquid)
  • 4oz water
  • 14oz sugar
  • 1 tbsp vanilla paste or the seeds of 1 vanilla bean


Marshmallow "Dust"

  • 2 tbsp powdered sugar
  • 2 tbsp corn starch

Assembly

  • 1 bar of dark chocolate
  • 1 box of graham crackers

Directions:

Marshmallow

  1. Grease a 9" x 13" baking tin with oil or butter.
  2. Combine the powdered sugar and corn starch and set aside. This is your "Marshmallow dust".
  3. In your mixer bowl, combine cold water and gelatine. Mix well with a fork, and leave to bloom while you prepare the sugar syrup. 
  4. In a medium pot, combine the water, honey, vanilla, and sugar. Heat over medium to high heat, stirring occasionally. Heat until the syrup reaches 240˚F, then remove from the heat and leave to cool to 210˚F.
  5. Turn your mixer (with whisk attachment) on to medium, and mix for a few seconds to help break up the bloomed gelatin.
  6. With the mixer running, VERY carefully pour the hot sugar syrup into the mixer.
  7. Turn the speed up to high, and whip for 5-7 minutes, until the marshmallow has doubled in volume, has turned a shade of off white, and holds somewhat of a peak when you stop the mixer and lift out the whisk. 
  8. Pour marshmallow mixture into the prepared tin.
  9. Dust the top with marshmallow dust.
  10. Allow to cure for 3-4 hours. I put it in the oven along with a note telling no one to turn on the oven. Here in Hawaii, ants are everywhere and the oven is the only safe, non refrigerated  place.
  11. Using a sharp knife dusted with marshmallow dust, cut marshmallows into the same size as your crackers. If the marshmallow is sticking together, lightly dust the cut surfaces with the marshmallow dust.

Smore Assembly

  1. Snap graham crackers in half and place one half of cracker on a baking sheet. Place a small piece of chocolate on each graham cracker. Put in oven at 300 F until chocolate gets soft and melts slightly. If you are making just a few s'mores, you can use a toaster oven for this part.
  2. Take crackers out of the oven. Put one marshmallow on top of chocolate and cover with another graham cracker.
  3. You can also torch the marshmallow for that just out of the fire taste.
