Ingredients
- 350g fondant icing sugar
- 3 drop/s American Peppermint Natural Extract, to taste
- ¾ tsp green food colouring gel
- 300g giant marshmallows
- 2 tsp Cooks’ Ingredients Milk Chocolate Vermicelli
- 28 Cake Decor Edible Eyes
- Milk Chocolate Dr Oetker Chocolatey Decorating Icing (from a 4x19g pack of 4 mixed flavours)
Method
Line a large baking tray with baking parchment and put a wire rack on top. Add the icing sugar to a large bowl with the peppermint extract and colouring gel. Gradually add 2-2½ tbsp warm water to make a thick but runny icing, like viscous double cream.
Dip the marshmallows into the icing to coat completely in a generous layer and place onto the prepared rack. Allow any excess to drip off.
Working quickly, scatter some chocolate vermicelli in a line along the top of the marshmallows to look like hair. Add 2 edible eyes to each monster, then use the decorating icing to make zig-zag mouths.
Set aside to dry completely before serving.
Cook’s tip
Use attractive paper straws as sticks and turn your monster heads into lollies before dipping and decorating.
