HOMEMADE CARAMEL MARSHMALLOW EASTER EGGS

Makes 20

 

CARAMEL:

200 g (250 ml) white sugar

30 ml (2 tbsp) water

80g (80 ml) salted butter, at room temperature

125 ml (½ cup) cream

100 g The Kate Tin baking white chocolate, finely chopped

Large pinch of sea salt flakes, for sprinkling

 

MARSHMALLOWS:

1kg cornstarch, sifted, for moulds (you’ll be able to reuse it afterwards)

125ml (½ cup) water

22g (35ml) powdered gelatine

330g (1 ½ cups) white sugar 

385g (1 ¼ cup)  glucose syrup

125ml (½ cup) water 

small pinch salt

5ml (1 tsp) vanilla extract

2 cups (300g) The Kate Tin dark baking chocolate

100g The Kate Tin milk baking chocolate, melted, to drizzle 

 

METHOD

To make the sauce, place the sugar in a small saucepan with the water and heat (without stirring) until melted and caramelised to a deep golden brown.  Add the butter and cream, and swirl to form a sauce. Add the white chocolate and a pinch of sea salt flakes. Set aside and allow to cool completely. For the marshmallows, fill two large, 20 x 30cm rimmed baking sheets with cornstarch, shaking to get a mostly even layer. Press a large egg lightly into the flour to make egg moulds. Space the indentations about 5-10cm apart.  In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment, combine the water and gelatine. Stir and allow to bloom for 5 minutes. Once the gelatine has bloomed, melt over a pot of gently simmering water. In a small pot,  combine the sugar, syrup, water and salt. Place over medium heat and bring to a boil. Boil until the sugar syrup reaches 120 degrees C or softball stage. Take off the heat immediately. Turn the mixer on and slowly pour the syrup in a steady stream down the inside of the bowl. Once all the syrup has been mixed in leave to mix for a further 20 second. Increase the speed to high and whisk for a further 8 minutes until thick. Swirl in the caramel sauce. Quickly place the mixture into a piping bag fitted with a straight nozzle. Pipe the mixture into the prepared egg moulds and leave to set for at least 4 hours or until firm. Melt the chocolate in a tall container and allow it to cool to room temperature. Place a skewer through the end of the marshmallows and completely immerse the marshmallow in the chocolate until completely covered. Leave to set on a piece of baking paper and decorate with milk chocolate. Store in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks.
