Double Raspberry S’mores8 servings Susan Walter / Chef |
Ingredients for the Raspberry Marshmallows:
- 5 tbsp. The Perfect Purée Red Raspberry Puree, thawed
- 2 1/4 tsp. Unflavored gelatin
- 2 tbsp. Water
- 1 1/3 Cups sugar
- 1 cup Corn syrup
- 4 egg Whites
- 1 tsp. Vanilla
- 1/8 tsp. Salt
- 1 1/4 cups Confectioners’ sugar
- 1/4 cup Cornstarch
Method for the Raspberry Marshmallows:
- Line a 12″x9″ pan with parchment, and brush with vegetable oil.
- Soften gelatin in water.
- Mix 1 cup sugar with corn syrup in a deep pan. Heat until the sugar melts. Continue cooking to 240° F.
- Whisk egg whites in a mixer. Add remaining 1/3 cup sugar. Beat to soft peaks.
- When the sugar-corn syrup is 250° F, add gelatin.
- Add Red Raspberry puree and mix briefly to leave light and dark swirls in marshmallows.
- Scrape into prepared pan—smooth top and cool. Dip offset spatula in hot water and dry, then smooth the top of the marshmallows. Depth will be about 1 1/8″. Reserve for at least 6 hours or overnight to set.
- Sift confectioners’ sugar and cornstarch together onto clean parchment. Lifting the parchment, turn marshmallows onto the clean parchment. Remove parchment and sift confectioners’ sugar onto marshmallows.
- Cut into squares or with cookie cutters in the same shape as the graham cracker. Gently sprinkle with sifted confectioners’ sugar mixture. Store covered for up to 1 month on sifted confectioners’ sugar.
Ingredients for the Graham Crackers:
- 4 oz. Butter
- 1/4 cup Brown sugar
- 2 tbsp. Sugar
- 2 tsp. Honey
- 1/4 tsp. Vanilla
- 1 cup Flour
- 1/2 cup Whole wheat flour
- 1/8 tsp. Salt
- 1/4 tsp. Baking soda
Method for the Graham Crackers:
- Cream butter, brown sugar, sugar, honey, and vanilla until smooth, about 20 minutes.
- Sift dry ingredients. Add to butter and mix to incorporate.
- Chill for 1 hour. Roll to 1/16″ thick. Using the same cutter as the marshmallows, cut into 16 pieces. Place on a cookie sheet. Using a pastry docker, or two forks, press a few holes into each graham cracker.
- Bake at 350° F degrees for 11 minutes. Cool completely. Store airtight.
Assembly:
- Spread melted chocolate on the backs of graham crackers. Sandwich a marshmallow in between two crackers, chocolate sides touching the marshmallow.
