Pumpkin Spice Bread With Toasted Marshmallows Recipes

PUMPKIN CUPCAKES WITH BURNT MARSHMALLOW FROSTING

Steps:

• Make the cupcakes: Position racks in the upper and lower thirds of the oven; preheat to 350 degrees F. Line two 12-cup muffin pans with liners. Whisk the flour, cinnamon, baking powder, baking soda, salt, nutmeg and cloves in a medium bowl. Combine the brown sugar, eggs, melted butter, pumpkin puree and vanilla in a large bowl and whisk until smooth. Add the flour mixture and whisk until just combined.
• Divide the batter among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds of the way. Bake, switching the pans halfway through, until the tops of the cupcakes spring back when gently pressed, 25 to 30 minutes. Let cool 5 minutes in the pan, then transfer to a rack to cool completely.
• Meanwhile, make the frosting: Combine the granulated sugar, cream of tartar, egg whites and salt in a large heatproof bowl set over a saucepan of simmering water (do not let the bowl touch the water). Whisk until the mixture is warm and the sugar dissolves, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove the bowl from the pan, add the vanilla and beat with a mixer on medium-high speed until the frosting is cool and stiff glossy peaks form, 4 to 6 minutes.
• Transfer the frosting to a piping bag fitted with a large round tip; pipe onto the cupcakes. Brown the frosting with a kitchen torch.

PUMPKIN MARSHMALLOWS

Steps:

• Line a 9x13 inch pan with plastic wrap and spray it lightly and uniformly with cooking spray. Set aside. Pour the 1/2 cup cold water into the bowl of a stand mixer and sprinkle the gelatin on top; set aside for 10 minutes.
• Combine the white sugar, corn syrup, and 1/4 cup water in a saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Do not stir once the sugar syrup begins to boil. Heat to 250 degrees F (120 degrees C), or until a small amount of syrup dropped into cold water forms a rigid ball. Meanwhile, combine the pumpkin puree, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and allspice. Mix well.
• Attach the mixing bowl to the stand mixer with the wire whip attachment and start the mixer on low speed. Carefully pour the boiling sugar syrup in a steady stream down the side of the mixing bowl. Increase the mixer to medium-high speed and add the salt. Mix until stiff, shiny, and white in color, about 5 to 12 minutes. Scrape down the sides of the bowl occasionally using a rubber spatula.
• Remove the bowl from the mixer and fold in the pumpkin mixture until combined. Add food coloring, if desired, for a deeper orange color. Return the bowl to the mixer and beat on medium-high speed about 3 minutes longer. Dip a spatula into the marshmallow mixture: the mixture should form a more-or-less continuous ribbon off the spatula into the bowl.
• Pour the mixture into the prepared pan so that it is an even depth. Let the mixture set at room temperature for at least 8 hours or overnight.
• Sift the cocoa powder, cornstarch, and confectioners' sugar into a pie plate. When the marshmallows have set, turn them onto a work surface and cut them into squares or shapes as desired. Roll each marshmallow in the cocoa mixture to coat all sides (reserve the cocoa mixture for re-dredging if needed). Marshmallows are best served fresh, but they can be stored in an airtight container (unrefrigerated) for about a week or in the freezer for a month. If you store the marshmallows, re-roll them in the cocoa mixture before serving.

TOASTED MARSHMALLOW PUMPKIN PIE

Steps:

• Brown butter: In a small saucepan, melt 2 sticks unsalted butter over medium-low heat. Cook until the milk solids separate out and turn golden brown and fragrant like toasted nuts, 10 minutes. Refrigerate until solid, 15 minutes. You will end up with half the amount of brown butter. Meanwhile, pulse the graham crackers to fine crumbs in a food processor. Place in a bowl and set aside.
• Crust: Add the brown butter to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Mix on low speed to break up, 30 seconds, then add the brown sugar and continue mixing on medium speed until aerated, 2 minutes. Scrape the sides and bottom of the bowl to bring the batter together. Crack the egg into a small cup or bowl with the vanilla and, with the mixer on medium speed, add to the batter to combine almost completely. Turn mixer off and scrape the sides and bottom of the bowl with a rubber spatula to bring the batter together. Mix on medium speed until nearly homogeneous, 20-30 seconds. Add both flours, salt, and graham cracker crumbs all at once and mix on low speed until the dough just comes together but still looks shaggy, about 30 seconds. Do not overmix. Remove the bowl from the stand mixer. With a plastic bench scraper, bring the dough together completely. Stretch a sheet of plastic wrap on a work surface and wrap dough into a rectangle. Refrigerate until chilled throughout, 1 hour or up to overnight.
• Bring dough to room temperature, 10 minutes. Spray pie tin with nonstick spray. Press pieces of dough into the bottom and up the sides of the pie tin, cleaning off edge of excess dough. Press plastic wrap on top of dough to make sure it's even and no thicker than ¼-inch. Chill dough while making pumpkin filling.
• Filling: Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. In a bowl, whisk eggs, vanilla, sugar, pumpkin, ginger, cloves, cinnamon, salt, molasses, evaporated milk, and bourbon. Pour into the chilled pie crust (you may have some custard left over, depending on the size of your pie tin). Place on baking sheet and bake 15 mins, then turn oven down to 325 degrees F and bake approximately 40 minutes more, until custard is set. Let cool while you make the marshmallow fluff.
• Marshmallow fluff: In a medium saucepan, cook sugar, water, and corn syrup on high heat until the temperature reaches 238 degrees F. Meanwhile, in a stand mixer, whip egg whites, salt, and cream of tartar on medium until stiff peaks form. When sugar is at 238 degrees F, turn mixer to low, and slowly add sugar to egg whites. Increase speed to high and whip until the mixture is cool, aerated, and super thick. "Fluff" it on top of the cooled pie, using two spoons to form peaks.
• Assembly: Using a kitchen blowtorch, toast the marshmallow topping until it's tan and toasty, 20-30 seconds. (If you don't have a blowtorch, stick it under the broiler.) Serve.
