Chocolate Marshmallow Fondant (Choco MMF)

Follow instructions to MMF recipe HERE. You will add the following ingredients to recipe above.

  • 1 oz melted semi-sweet or bittersweet chocolate
  • 1 tbsp cocoa powder (it can be either Dutch-process or natural - the later will give a more pronounced flavor)*
  1. Follow Instructions on MMF recipe from Step1 to 3, for melting the marshmallow. Once these are melted, stir melted chocolate in a mixing bowl until well incorporated. Set aside.
  2. Here is the change to the MMF recipe. Instead of just adding the sugar, place the sugar in a small mixing bowl and sift the cocoa powder in a small mesh strainer over the sugar. Mix the dry ingredients.
  3. Proceed to step four, sift sugar and cocoa mix over the melted marshmallow and continue the instructions, i.e., mix until well incorporated.
  4. Continue with the kneading (this is hot- wait until it cools a little or start kneading with a spoon until safe to the touch).

*Variations to this recipe:
- You can also use white chocolate by substituting 1 oz of semi-sweet chocolate and 1 tbspoon of cocoa powder with 2 oz of white chocolate.

Can you color chocolate fondant? For example, purple?

Karen,

Thank YOU for the comments. I hope the Chocolate MMF turned out great.

Tea,

No, I don't think you can get a purple MMF with chocolate MMF. Maybe if you do a white chocolate one, but honestly, I haven't tried. However, you can use regular MMF to get purple :)
