Easy Fondant in the Microwave

I’m sharing this recipe for easy fondant in the microwave. It’s a quick and less elaborate version than a normal fondant recipe. You only need to melt the marshmallows in the microwave, add the powdered sugar, and knead until you have a smooth, elastic dough ready to decorate your favorite desserts.
Ingredients

Servings

  • Grease a large glass dish with vegetable shortening, add the marshmallows, water, and put it in the microwave to melt. I recommend placing it in for 30-second intervals and stirring in between each interval to melt evenly. If you don’t have a microwave, you can melt it using a double boiler.
  • Once the marshmallows are melted, add the sifted powdered sugar and mix until you obtain a homogeneous dough. If you prefer, you can do this step with a mixer.
  • When most of the sugar is integrated, you can finish kneading it on a clean surface. Knead until you have a smooth and manageable dough. Keep the fondant covered and in a dry place to prevent it from hardening.
