Spicy Drink Taste
I would like to also amend my earlier suggestion on how one must be free of technology when in the kitchen to allow for complete focus. Exceptions are made when you need to read the recipe on your phone since the printer ran out of ink.
We made one batch of plain marshmallows and then got fancy from there. Of course, I had to recommend the addition of some sort of booze. Maple syrup and pumpkin pie spice added a perfect hint of flavor. Fluffy, springy and spice-scented marshmallows. Heaven. Perfect for your hot cocoa mixed excessively by “stand”.

First dig out your whisk attachment and candy thermometer from the bottom of your odds n’ ends drawer. Then mix the powdered sugar, cornstarch and spice in a small bowl.
