Marshmallows

I've been wanting to try this recipe for months, so when I bought a new candy thermometer I was excited to put it to use.  If you've never had a homemade marshmallow before, I highly recommend giving these a try.

Shelly, from Cookie and Cups has a great recipe and tutorial on her blog: here.  I followed this almost exactly and thought they came out great!  The hardest part was cutting these sticky little guys into squares, but a buttered pizza cutter did the trick pretty well.

Then I got a little crazy and dipped them in some melted Ghirardelli dark chocolate...

I admit, they aren't the prettiest, but they certainly were delicious!
