# Ingredients:
→ Main Ingredients
01 -
1 cup bubblegum-flavored syrup
02 -
1 cup marshmallow fluff
03 -
2 cups powdered sugar
04 -
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
05 -
Pink food coloring (optional)
# Instructions:
01 -
In a large mixing bowl, combine the marshmallow fluff and bubblegum-flavored syrup. Stir thoroughly until the mixture is smooth and fluffy with an even consistency.
02 -
Gradually add the powdered sugar to the marshmallow mixture, about 1/2 cup at a time. Mix well after each addition until all the powdered sugar is incorporated and a soft, pliable dough forms.
03 -
Stir in the vanilla extract. If desired, add a drop or two of pink food coloring to enhance the bubblegum appearance. Mix until the color is evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
04 -
Line a square baking dish (approximately 8×8 inches) with parchment paper. Spread the mixture evenly into the dish, pressing it down to create a flat, even surface. Place in the refrigerator until firm, about 1-2 hours.
05 -
Once firm, lift the slab out of the dish using the parchment paper. Place on a cutting board and slice into 8 equal bars or squares. Serve immediately or store in an airtight container for later enjoyment.
# Notes:
01 -
The pink food coloring is optional but adds to the traditional bubblegum appearance and enhances the visual appeal.
02 -
These treats have a sweet, fluffy consistency that melts in your mouth, similar to a soft marshmallow candy.
03 -
Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days, or in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
