Get App Then turn the stove back on over medium low heat with the thermometer in the pot. 8 @moremomma on

Get App Cook until the caramel reaches 244 F. Be careful not to go over that temperature or the caramel will get too hard. 9 @moremomma on

Get App Pour the caramel in a 8x12 parchment lined baking dish. Spread out evenly, making sure it reaches the corners. 10 @moremomma on

Get App Chill the caramel in the refrigerator while you make the marshmallow filling. 11 @moremomma on

Get App To make the marshmallow filling add 4 packets of unflavored gelatin to a mixing bowl. 12 @moremomma on

Get App Add 1/2 cup water and stir. Let sit. 13 @moremomma on

Get App In a saucepan add 2 cups granulated sugar. 14 @moremomma on

Get App Then add 3/4 cup corn syrup and 1/2 cup water. 15 @moremomma on

Get App Bring to a boil over low heat. 16 @moremomma on

Get App Break up the gelatin by turning the mixture on low speed for 10 seconds. 20 @moremomma on

Get App Then on low speed, slowly add in the hot sugar mixture into the gelatin. Turn the mixer up to medium speed. Mix for 10-15 minutes to thicken. 21 @moremomma on

Get App Add 1 1/2 tablespoons vanilla bean paste or extract and mix for an additional 30 seconds. 22 @moremomma on

Get App Quickly add the marshmallow mixture to the cold caramel. I’m doing 3/4 vanilla and then reserving 1/4 of the marshmallow mixture to flavor with mint. 23 @moremomma on

Get App If you want to make two flavors reserve a portion for the other flavor. You want the marshmallow layer to be about 1/2 inch thick. 24 @moremomma on

Get App To make the mint marshmallows add mint extract and green food coloring (1 teaspoon for ever 2 cups). Stir to combine. 25 @moremomma on

Get App Place the mint marshmallows into the pan and freeze for 3 hours. 26 @moremomma on

Get App Cut into 1 inch strips and then 1 inch cubes. You may need to spray the knife multiple times. Place the cut pieces on a parchment lined baking sheet. 28 @moremomma on

Get App When the mixture gets too hard to cut place it back in the freezer for 10 minutes. Then finish cutting. 29 @moremomma on

Get App Place the cubes into the freezer for 30 minutes to harden. 30 @moremomma on

Get App Cut 2 pounds dark chocolate into small pieces. 31 @moremomma on

Get App Dip the frozen pieces into the chocolate with two forks. Then place them back on a parchment lined baking sheet and chill in the refrigerator. 33 @moremomma on

Get App Finish with the mint ones last to prevent any flavor interactions. 34 @moremomma on

Get App When they have chilled for 10 minutes re-dip them in chocolate for a thicker coat or touch up any imperfections with some more melted chocolate. 35 @moremomma on

Get App When the chocolates have cooled, drizzle chocolate on top with a fork to create a design. Keep chilled until ready to serve. 36 @moremomma on
