How to make Lamington Marshmallows


Lamingtons are such an Aussie Classic, but sometimes you just don’t feel like sponge cake. 

Sacrilege I know, but once you taste these Lamington Marshmallows you’ll understand why a modern twist on an old classic is OK once in a while.

These Lamington Marshmallows are my new favourite recreation of the classic Lamington. They are fluffy, crunchy little morsels of Aussie goodness. They taste just like a ‘Snowball’ – well a squashed Snowball at least – and they will be a hit with the whole family.

These Lamington Marshmallows are a bit fiddly to make. Just like normal Lamingtons, each piece needs to be dipped in Chocolate and rolled in coconut which can be a bit messy but eating the leftovers makes up for the required cleaning. 

Make sure the chocolate isn’t too hot as it will melt the marshmallow. 

I have made my own Chocolate (with extra coconut oil to help harden the coating). If you prefer, substitute the Coconut Oil, Cocoa, Maple Syrup and Vanilla for 300 grams of chocolate. This Chocolate will then need to be melted and have the extra Coconut Oil added.

Marshmallows are easier to make than you think, too. Once you’ve mastered the craft you’ll never eat a store bought one again. If you want to make these Lamington Marshmallows a bit different try using Chocolate Marshmallow instead.

So tell me, what’s your favourite Australia Day treat? Do you eat Vegemite all day or do you try and see how many sausage sizzles you can attend in one day?
