In reply to daria. Those won't set either! Noe enough air means they will be dense, and too much air means they can deflate, also becoming dense. You'll want the mixture to be nice and billowy and shiny.

Hi, Daria– overmixing can lead to dense marshmallows! As long as the mixture is still shiny, it’s in the safe zone 🙂

I have a question. Is there a harm in letting the mixer run a few extra minutes ? In other words, what happens to the product if you “overmix” it?

This was my first time making marshmallows. It was an easy recipe to follow, The hardest part was waiting to eat them! Everyone loves them, I can’t wait to make them again!

Despite having made homemade marshmallows before, I always forget about the STICKY factor! I love making them though, because I feel like such a scientist. This recipe didn’t disappoint and explains everything so well. They taste so much better than a store bought one, and are just generally a lot of fun. 🙌
