If you're short on time but still want to impress your guests with a delicious Easter dessert, this easy Easter dessert pie is the answer. It's simple to make and tastes like you spent hours in the kitchen.
What You'll Need:
For the Marshmallows:
3 packets of unflavored gelatin
1/2 cup cold water
2 cups granulated sugar
1/2 cup light corn syrup
1/2 cup hot water
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Food coloring (optional)
For the Coating:
1 cup chocolate chips
1 tablespoon coconut oil
Sprinkles for decoration (optional)
Step 1: Prepare the Marshmallows
Start by greasing a baking dish with cooking spray and dusting it with powdered sugar. In a small bowl, mix together the gelatin and cold water. Set this aside to bloom, which means to soften and expand.
Step 2: Make the Marshmallow Mixture
In a large saucepan, combine the granulated sugar, corn syrup, and hot water. Stir the mixture over medium heat until the sugar is completely dissolved. Once dissolved, bring the mixture to a boil and let it cook for 1 minute without stirring. Then, remove it from the heat and add in the salt and vanilla extract. If desired, you can also add a few drops of food coloring for a festive touch.
Step 3: Combine the Mixtures
Slowly pour the hot sugar mixture into the bloomed gelatin, while continuously stirring with a hand mixer on low speed. Once all the sugar mixture is added, increase the speed to high and beat for about 10 minutes or until the mixture is thick and holds its shape when the beaters are lifted.
Step 4: Shape the Eggs
Pour the marshmallow mixture into the prepared baking dish and smooth the top with a silicone spatula. Let it set for at least 4 hours or overnight.
Once set, use egg-shaped cookie cutters to cut out the marshmallows into egg shapes. If you don't have cookie cutters, you can also use a sharp knife to cut them out by hand.
Step 5: Coat the Eggs
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the chocolate chips and coconut oil. Microwave for 30 seconds, then stir and microwave for another 30 seconds until the chocolate is melted and smooth.
Using forks, dip each marshmallow egg into the chocolate and coat it completely. Tap off any excess chocolate and place the eggs on a wire rack to set. If desired, you can also add sprinkles on top of the chocolate before it sets.
Step 6: Enjoy Your Homemade Marshmallow Easter Eggs
Once the chocolate has set, your homemade marshmallow Easter eggs are ready to enjoy! They can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks, but let's be real – they probably won't last that long. Serve them as a sweet treat or add them to your Easter baskets for a homemade touch.
Now that you have the recipe for these delicious homemade marshmallow Easter eggs, it's time to get creative and have fun making them your own. Happy Easter!
