I light a forest fire on my sheet pan of mini marshmallows and let it burn out on its own. The surface of all the marshmallows should be black/burnt, while the bottoms remain perfectly white.

Ingredients
Preparation
Step 1
Spread the marshmallows out evenly on an unlined sheet pan and char them to hell and back with a blowtorch. Transfer the pan to the fridge or freezer for 10 minutes to firm up the marshmallows and make them easier to handle. Use immediately or store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week.

Step 2
The only thing we really use our blowtorch for is to char these marshmallows. If you or your significant other happens to be a handy person, then perhaps you already have one. If not, you should get one, because they are superfun to play with and you can teach yourself to weld. That said, it’s not necessary to go out and buy one: you can char the marshmallows under the broiler of your oven or any other type of open flame—like a wand lighter.
