Notes
- Frosting can be made in advance and stored in refrigerator (in airtight container) for up to 1 week.
- Texture of marshmallow frosting is smoother than traditional buttercream.
- To thicken: Add 1/4 cup of powdered sugar
- To thin: add a splash of milk and blend well.
- After frosting a cake or piping on cupcakes, frosting will develop a slightly firm coating, but not as firm as a traditional buttercream.
- Use our homemade marshmallow fluff for today's frosting. You'll need 1/2 a batch!
- We attempted to "toast" the frosting, but it did not work. So don't try it, haha!
