The marshmallow creme came out perfectly. (The second 2/3 c sugar is a typo). I made the 'momma reiners fudge' (same as the old 'fantasy fudge' recipe)doubled the fudge recipe. ( this is enough for 2 batches of fudge). I used 12 oz evaporated milk in fudge recipe instead of 10oz. The recipe calls for 5oz ea batch... I used 2 8x8 pans, buttered. Next time I will definitely line pans with something for better removal. The fudge set up beautifully, and is fantastic.

This is really good stuff. I didn't have light corn syrup on hand, so I used dark and didn't notice a difference except for a bit of a color to the finished product. After a taste test, my mother said she couldn't tell it from the stuff from the store. Yum.

I think the second 2/3 of a cup of sugar is a typo. I've made this several times and my family loves it!

MY HUSBAND DECIDED TO MAKE THIS, OH SO GOOD, I JUST MAY INSIST HE MAKES ALL THE CHRISTMAS GOODIES. WE ALL LOVED THE MARSHMALLOW CREAM, I SAVED WHAT WAS LEFT AND WE USE IT AS TOPPING FOR ICE CREAM AND CHOCOLATE DRINKS.

The fudge recipe here does NOT work. It would not coat the marshmallows after the first 3 at all. Total mess!!! The marshmallows rocked though. Next time I'll just use my standard fudge recipe. Momma Reiners fudge recipe is going into the trash.

To a previous comment: This is marshmallow creme and doesn't need a pan because it doesn't set up. Just put into a jar like the store-bought and spoon out as needed. By the way, one jar store-bought is 7 oz. or 2 1/4 c. called for in the fudge recipe so you don't need to make your own as the difference won't be noticed in the fudge. You will need a pan (as well as gelatin) for the marshmallow recipe because they need to set up overnight for cutting.

I used a 9X13 pan for the recipe for marshmallows without tartar (with gelatin in place of the tartar) and they turned out great. Really thick.

I used powdered egg whites - turned out great!

How do you finish this recipe? What type of pan do you use, etc? This needs a bit more detail.

Does anyone know if the leftovers need to be refrigerated or can it be stored at room temperature?

I use the egg whites that come in a carton because they are pasteurized. If you don't have any of those on hand, raw egg whites would still be safe because the hot syrup is well above the temperature needed to kill any harmful bacteria.

Is it safe to use raw egg whites or do the egg whites reach a safe temperature when adding the hot syrup?
Thanks!
