Marshmallow Fondant!
My Friend, Tamona and I have come up with a brilliant plan! 
Y’all know I don’t cook much and that’s why Susan does my Tuesdays Tasty Tidbits. Well, so I thought about adding crafts, too – but, the only thing is I don’t craft, either!
You might be, at this point, asking what do I do?! lol I find deals for y’all!! That’s what I do!
So, anyway…Tamona is going to do Make Something Mondays for us here!
How To Make Marshmallow Fondant
Spring screams cleaning, re-decorating, out with the old, in with the new, gardening, and outdoor fun. Some of that outdoor fun includes beautiful picnics and LOTS of cake. I see tons of parties this time of year and I love how beautiful everything looks. You will love today’s Make Something Monday project because today we are making our own marshmallow fondant! Some people say that marshmallow fondant is much tastier but since I don’t like fondant at all, I would not be a good judge. My daughter likes marshmallow fondant but thinks regular fondant tastes like cardboard with flavor added!
You will need:
1/4 cup of Crisco
16 ounces mini Marshmallows
4 tablespoons of water
1 teaspoon of vanilla extract or 1 1/2 teaspoon of imitation vanilla
8 cups of powdered sugar (2lbs of powdered sugar)
Watch me make it so you can see exactly how this is actually made!

Super easy and tasty! Made little race cars for my son’s 4th birthday cupcakes last week! I make it differently though. Just use water, marshmallows, and powdered sugar. Microwave the marshmallow and water then mix the sugar.

use shorting on your hands and counter to prevent it from sticking,, 🙂

Yep, that’s what she did in the video, she also used gloves! Easy Clean-up!

Very easy clean up! I love making it too because you can get the kiddos involved. You can also put plastic wrap on the table and then throw everything away.

I wish I were crafty or a cook, like Tamona Valentine, she is great at all of it and makes it all look super easy!

Janet, it is super duper easy! If you put too much of a wet ingredient, balance it with a dry one and vice versa. Also, instead of adding vanilla you could always add your own flavor (peppermint, butterscotch, etc.) for more flair.

Mmmm, marshmallows! I made Rice Krispie treats last night. Thankfully I sent them to school with my son today so I didn’t eat them all myself (because I totally totally could). I’ll have to check these out!

Yum! I’ve been looking for new things to make in the kitchen, this isn’t as scary! Will try it!
