Marshmallow Sauce


desserts

8 oz marshmallows
2 tablespoon water
3/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup milk
1 tablespoon light corn syrup
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

In top of double boiler, melt marshmallows with water. Leave in double boiler and set aside. In a heavy saucepan, combine sugar, milk, and corn syrup. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer 5 minutes. Pour this liquid over marshmallows and, with a hand-held mixer, whisk, or egg beater, beat until smooth. Sauce will thicken as it cooks. Remove from heat. Add vanilla. Serve at room temperature. Makes enough for 4 to 6 sundaes. From: "Square Meals Cookbook", Courtesy Debbie Carlson - Cooking Echo
