Today is the international Toasted Marshmallow Day (notice I never miss the food days eh?) and in honour of such an esteemed day I’d like to present you guys with a recipe I found a few years back.
Hot Cocoa With Marshmallow Cakes
The ingrediants you’ll need are:
- 3/4 cup of flour
- Pinch of salt
- 1/4 cup of cocoa powder
- 1/2 teaspoon of baking soda
- 1/4 cup butter
- 1/2 cup of sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
- 1 egg
- 1/2 cup of water
- Handful of tiny marshmallows
How to make:
- Preheat the oven to 180C.
- Mix the flour, salt, cocoa and baking powder together.
- Mix the butter, sugar, vanilla and egg together, beating the paste is smooth.
- Alternate adding the water and the flour mixture, beating the mixture as you go along.
- Take several small marshmallows and place one inside each paper cake liner then pour the mixture on top of them.
- Bake in the oven for 15-20 minutes depending on the size of the cakes then leave to cool for 10 minutes.
Hope you guys have a wonderful day, and don’t forget to toast a marshmallow for yourself.

They sound tasty :chef:
:)I don't like Marshmallows. Only in rice crispy bars.
Sure does :chef: just need the mallows :p
We don`t have marshmallow here :awww::sst: I needed to Google it to know what it is :left:
I know :awww:
:yikes:
:eyes:
That looks delightful!
Yummy! Going to try that sometime. :yes: I like the ones roll ed in coconut. :chef::awww: sorry to hear that darko.
Something like beef jerky just way better :p
Sometimes they have laws.. Like I can't send biltong to the UK and they can only produce it themselves :confused:
Tiny marshmallows? What about great big honking huge marshmallows? tiny marshmallows, indeed! :irked: ;)Darko,No marshmallows?Is it legal to send someone marshmallows in the mail? Seriously!
But … but … it's marshmallows! Nobody can be hurt by a marshmallow-related incident! What's biltong?
Clean, I don`t know. I think if it is in original package there will be no problems but can`t be sure. Thanks anyway, one day when I am going to travel to Great Britain, or USA or Australia (or to all of these places 😀 ) I will buy them 🙂
Darko,Groovy!(I couldn't figure out where to find out the info – I couldn't see someone at the counter in Australia Post knowing … 😆 but I thought there might be a customs/quarantine issue with foodstuffs).Cois,What sort of animal is it made from? 😮 😉
Any edible beast is suitable for biltong. Springbok and ostrich are both popular. Although mutton and beef versions are cheaper.Darko, I'll give you the recipe for marshmallow. :up:.
That was me! I sent the marshmallows 😀 . I know! When darko wins a competition I'll throw some marshmallows in there 💡
I miss all the food days :awww:. Originally posted by clean:
Yes, it is! I've gotten marshmallows in the mail :happy:.
Oh wait… that doesn't necessarily mean it's legal, I just realized. :left:
And hope he gets them before they become a lifeform of their own. Hopefully Serbian mail is better than British.
I missed a food day. :awww: And I like marshmellows – I just never had them toasted.
Isn't it illegal to eat untoasted marshmallows! :insane:
Thanks, all :happy:
Aadil,Hmm … springbok sounds interesting. Ostrich, I imagine, would taste like chicken … ;)Originally posted by qlue:
:doh: Why didn't I think of that … ? 🙄

Ostrich tastes like ostrich! :irked:.And no, it doesn't taste anything like chicken. It tastes like game. Kind of like a blend between mutton and beef but with a bit of kudu thrown in for good measure. :sherlock:.Of course, biltong tastes like biltong and has to be tried. It's not something that benefits from describing it. :awww:.
Hmm …… okay …… what's kudu?
qlue writes:*takes deep breath and counts to two thousand, seven hundred and fifty three*http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kudu*mumbles* (good thing I didn't mention blesbok :whistle:)(serious problem accessing this page :bomb:)
What's … what's blesbok … ? :eyes:
Yeah, same here. My visitors are going through the roof for some reason.
It's an antelope isn't it?
From the pics on the Wikipedia page it looks like something I wouldn't want to mess with … those horns – my clacker Does Not Want! :eyes:
So … it tastes like chicken, too, then … ? :p 😉
😆 eish.. Antelope type yes.. It's all wild really though qlue might have a kudu in his bedroom :whistle:.Game has its own 'wild' taste and you can't describe it as chicken 🙄 If you've tried goat meat you'd know the richer flavour it has than mutton. Is all good really but some might be a acquired taste really eh..
Do you know what day it is today? :angel:
Goat bad. Snake good. :chef:
Stick to your marshmallows dude 😆
Wednesday 🙄
I didn't know that one got through. :lol:.I eventually gave up and email a couple of posts in :irked:.I only spent three and a half hours and half my battery trying to post here yesterday!!
Monopoly has been renamed.It's called "microsoft" now. :whistle:.
:lol:(Sorry, Mik – I know you hate the smiley only comments).
Kangaroo is gamey. Duck is gamey. Monopoly is gamey …
Thanks for clearing that up, guys. Somehow I thought it was a dislike of smileys in general … :beard: 😉
He hates them when they're made in response to a post, not when someone's made a funny.
It's the serial killer smiley that gets to me. The exact same expression people have as they slowly remove your skin. 🙂
Just the serial killer. Although if I've spent half an hour typing an epic on my phone (yesterdays mobile application essay for example) and it only gets smiley comments, that's annoying. :awww: Jokes on the other hand are understandable smiley comment provokers.
