Marshmallow dip is a sweet dessert made from marshmallows and other ingredients, often served as a dip for fruit, crackers, or cakes. It can be made with various types of marshmallows and combined with chocolate, fruit, or other ingredients. It can be served at room temperature or chilled, and can also be prepared in a slow cooker or fondue pot.
Marshmallow dip is a sweet, dessert concoction that can be made from various types of marshmallows combined with other ingredients to make a treat used as a dip for fruit, crackers, or cakes. Marshmallows can be combined with melted chocolate, chocolate syrup, vanilla, jams or preserves, diced pieces of fruit, or even crushed graham crackers. The thick texture of marshmallows can be diced with ingredients such as cream cheese, mascarpone, or whipped cream to make scooping easier. Marshmallow dip is usually uncooked and can be served at room temperature or chilled, although one type of dipping uses a slow cooker to keep the marshmallows loose and in a sticky state.
The type of marshmallow used in a marshmallow dip will affect the final texture and, sometimes, the taste. Many dipping recipes use premade marshmallow creme or whipped marshmallow creme, both of which are naturally fluffy and creamy at room temperature. Formed marshmallows can be used but must be reheated and eaten before completely cooling to a solid state. You can use homemade marshmallows in a marshmallow dip, because they’re essentially just gelatin and corn syrup, though the resulting marshmallow mix will solidify after several hours and shouldn’t be allowed to sit too long before serving.
Besides simply serving marshmallow dip, one of the most popular combinations for a marshmallow dip is marshmallow dip and cream cheese. These ingredients are simply mixed, chilled and served. Another recipe mixes marshmallow cream with yogurt and mashed bananas to make a dip that has some sweetness and a tangy, fruity character.
For a more classic dessert-like marshmallow dip, the marshmallow creme can be combined with chocolate pudding, layered or in a swirl during the dip. Melted chocolate, chocolate syrup, butterscotch or fruit jam can be incorporated into the marshmallow sauce in the same way. The dip can also have solid ingredients such as sweet candy, crushed crackers, crushed cookies, or mixed in dried fruits and nuts.
A unique way to serve marshmallow sauce is to prepare it in a slow cooker or fondue pot. This recipe uses sweetened condensed milk as the base along with chocolate chips that melt in a slow cooker along with marshmallows or marshmallow creme. The dip, which will be warm and very creamy, can be served like a fondue, with cake cubes and fruit slices.
