Friday Recipe - A great Father's Day Treat

I saw this recipe a few weeks ago for Homemade Marshmallow Fluff and knew I would need to try it for Mr. Man. He loves banana splits and he likes to put chocolate topping, some of his mom's homemade strawberry jam and marshmallow fluff on top of the ice cream and bananas. So when I saw the recipe I immediately whipped some up for our evening dessert.

When I say I "whipped it up" I mean, I whipped it up in about 20 minutes or so - it was so easy to make! It made a HUGE bowl of it so I filled a container of it and froze some. We ate the rest with banana splits (I think we had banana splits for dessert every evening for a week!) using up what I didn't freeze. I haven't pulled the container out of the freezer yet to know how it worked in the freezer.

If a dad in your life would love a banana split with homemade marshmallow topping for a Father's Day dessert I highly recommend this!

Homemade Marshmallow Fluff
INGREDIENTS:
3 egg whites (if you are nervous about using raw egg whites, powdered ones can be substituted)
2 cups light corn syrup
1/2 tsp. salt
2 cups powdered sugar
1 Tbsp. vanilla extract

In a large bowl, combine egg whites, corn syrup and salt; beat with mixer in high speed for 10 minutes or until thick. Then add in the powdered sugar a little at a time; beat on low speed until blended. Finally, mix in vanilla until blended. Store in the refrigerator for up to a week.

Like I said, we used this as topping for banana splits, but you can click here for the Homemade Mamas recommended recipe for S'More Cookie Bars from Baked Perfection.
