Today I will share how I made my first 3 ingredient fondant. It does take some effort for the kneading, but it was another fun bonding time with the kids.

Ingredients:
2 cups plain miniature marshmallows
2 cups powdered sugar
food color (optional)
Steps:
In this recipe I have pink marshmallows as it was only kind available. I will be coloring the fondant red anyway. First place a bowl of marshmallows over a boiling water. Wait until it starts to melt.
Mix from time to time. Remove from heat. Continue stirring the melted marshmallows.
Add tiny drops of food color and stir until the color blends well.

Start adding powdered sugar gradually, until it has the consistency of a dough.
Knead the dough for a few minutes. Add a little more powdered sugar to improve consistency.
Cover with plastic wrap and let rest in fridge for a few hours or overnight.
Rub your hands with butter when you want to start working your fondant to avoid it sticking to your hands.
