Happy 20th Birthday Caitlin!

I bought this pan set years ago for really cheap.  Have always wanted to try it and never have until now.  I have also wanted to try to make fondant from scratch.  I found a marshmallow recipe, so I gave both a try. 
The marshmallow fondant has only 4 ingredients:  marshmallows, water, vanilla extract & confectioners sugar.
At first the fondant is very sticky, but once the powdered sugar is incorporated it becomes very pliable and easy to work with.  I kneaded it for about 8 minutes and then used Wilton food coloring.
Happy 20th Birthday Caitlin!
