  1. Has anyway made the marshmallows from Dorie? Was reading the recipe and it is very different from nightscotsman...the one I use. Plus, Dorie, if you can respond..the recipe seems to be missing a sentence on when to fold in the egg whites...I know it is at the end, but does not say specifically. Also, you fold whatever flavoring in at the end, too..different than in nightscotsman. So, looking for reviews!! Thanks.

  2. I was looking to Dorie's new book and contemplating the pumpkin marshmallows for one of the Thanksgiving sweets.  Then it occured to me, what about gingerbread marshmallows too?  Take a look at Dorie's recipe and the variations and let me know how you think you would make gingerbread marshmallows.

    There is a GREAT gingerbread marshmallow recipe already on egullet on the marshmallow thread...sorry, I am in a rush and cannot post it, but look there. Made with brown sugar Karo syrup..which by the way, I use in the pumpkin one too now.

  3. Darcie and I both added creme of coconut to the cake as well as a little extract. Perhaps that is why I was so happy with it.

    The cake has to be on the firm side so that it is easily sliced in half.

    I loved it. I wouldn't mind trying Inas though.

    Okay...I am confused...do you add the creme of coconut to the Peninsula Cake recipe....how much? And do you eliminate anything else? Wendy..do you change anything in the Ina Garten recipe?

    I saw one recipe for a cake where they put a syrup of coconut cream/water and brush it on the cake...I thought that might make it more coconutty. If I froze the layers...would I put the syrup on before I froze the layers..or after it has defrosted?

    Thanks!
