There is nothing better on a cold, winter day than a comforting hot cup of cocoa. If your family is like mine, you go through hot cocoa like water during the long winter months. Eben loves to have a cup when he gets home from school. I have to admit that I, myself also love to drink cocoa on the weekends when I am snuggled up on my sofa. The best part of any hot cup of cocoa has to be the marshmallows floating on top. That is, as long as those marshmallows don’t contain artificial ingredients and gelatin. You can make your own vegan marshmallows to ensure that you know exactly what is inside each one — and not only are these marshmallows vegan, they are super fun to make — and doing so is a great weekend baking project to enjoy with your children.
These marshmallows also look fantastic wrapped up and given as gifts — and with Valentine’s Day right around the corner, you can give them as a sweet treat to your friends and family. We cut some of our marshmallows into heart shapes, and they’ll be a welcome topping to our cups of cocoa all February long. You can store them in an airtight container in your refrigerator until you are ready to give them away or enjoy them immediately. Jump over to Inhabitots for the simple instructions!
