Directions
This makes for a wonderful homemade gift for the holidays. I also love making homemade Vanilla Bean Sugar as a gift and also delicious in coffee, over french toast or sprinkled on a scone.,Making homemade marshmallows from scratch with agave has been on my list of things to try for a very long time. I modified the Barefoot Contessas recipe and replaced the corn syrup with agave and added some fresh vanilla bean and I just loved how these turned out! What a fun project, not very difficult to make as long as you have the right tools; a candy thermometer and a stand mixer are a must.,
