Ingredients

Instructions

  • Lightly mist a loaf pan with non-stick spray, and line with parchment.
  • Place the key lime juice in a large mixing bowl, and sprinkle the powdered gelatin on top. Set aside and allow to soften.
  • Combine the sugar, corn syrup, water, and salt in a medium saucepan, and set over medium-high heat. Allow the mixture to come to a boil, swirling the pot occasionally (do not stir). Attach a candy thermometer to the side of the pot, and keep the mixture at a low boil until it reaches 238 degrees F.
  • Slowly and carefully pour the hot syrup over the key lime/gelatin mixture, while whipping at medium speed.
  • Increase the speed to high and continue to whip until the marshmallow is stiff, glossy, and white.
  • Stir in the vanilla extract and lime zest.
  • Pour into the prepared pan and allow to set for 3 hours, or overnight.
  • Turn the marshmallow out onto a cutting board, peel away the parchment, and use a sharp knife (misted with non-stick spray) to cut into 2-inch squares.
  • Toss the marshmallows in graham cracker crumbs, toasted coconut, or powdered sugar, and enjoy!
