Ingredients
  

Brown Sugar Caramel

  • 340 grams white sugar
  • 340 grams brown sugar
  • 570 grams corn syrup
  • 680 grams evaporated milk 2, 12 ounce cans
  • 280 grams heavy cream fill up one of the 12 ounce heavy cream cans
  • 150 grams butter
  • 2 grams salt

Honey Vanilla Marshmallows

    Gelatin Blend

    • 21 grams unflavored gelatin
    • 120 grams cold water

    Sugar Slurry

    • 380 grams sugar
    • 120 grams honey
    • 190 grams corn syrup
    • 150 grams water
    • 10 grams vanilla

    Instructions
     

    • Prep a 12 x 17" sheet pan by lining it with parchment paper.

    Caramel

    • Combine all ingredients in a large, thick bottomed, heavy duty pot. Stirring constantly, heat on medium heat until all ingredients have melted and dissolved. Bring to a boil over medium heat. You will need to stir from start to finish with this caramel. This is around 40 minutes. You do not stop stirring. Have a show ready to watch, have a podcast ready to listen to, don't have kids around that can distract you.
    • Once boiling, increase heat to medium high. Cook until temperature reaches 242, stirring the whole time.
    • Pour out on parchment paper. Cool for a minimum of four hours.

      Hydrate Gelatin

      • In a 5 quart mixing bowl, Whisk gelatin into cold water. Set aside while syrup slurry cooks. Before beginning cooking syrup, set up a hot water bath for the gelatin but do not put the gelatin in it.
      • Combine sugar, honey, corn syrup, and water in a heavy duty, thick bottomed pot. Stirring constantly, cook until temperature reaches 252F. Turn off heat. Cool undisturbed until 212F.
      • While syrup is cooling, place gelatin in a hot water bath until it is fluid. Place mixing bowl on mixing stand. When syrup has reached 212F, begin mixing with the whisk attachment on high.
      • Slowly stream syrup into whisking gelatin. Once all syrup has been added, mix on high for 8 minutes. Add vanilla and mix for 20 more seconds.
      • Spread evenly on top of cooled caramel. Place a piece of oiled parchment on top of marshmallow.
      • Let marshmallow sit undisturbed for 12-24 hours. Cut into desired size. I recommend 1" x 1.25"
      • Store in an airtight container.
