Ingredients

• 1 cup whole milk
• 1 cup heavy cream
• ¾ cup (150 g) white sugar
• ¼ cup marshmallow fluff (or marshmallow cream)
• ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
• Pinch of salt
• ¼ teaspoon almond extract (optional but adds a lovely nutty note)
• ¼ cup mini marshmallows (for toasting)

Ingredient Notes

• Whole milk + heavy cream: These create that creamy coffeehouse-style texture. You can swap with oat milk or almond milk for a lighter version.
• Marshmallow fluff: This gives your creamer that signature toasted marshmallow flavor and sweetness.
• Almond extract: Just a hint adds warmth and a slightly nutty aroma.
• Mini marshmallows: Toast them for a real campfire flavor—it’s worth it!

Instructions

1. Toast the Marshmallows:

Place mini marshmallows on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Use a kitchen torch or broil in the oven for 30–60 seconds until golden brown. Watch closely so they don’t burn.

2. Heat the Base:

In a small saucepan, combine milk, cream, and sugar over medium heat. Stir gently until the sugar dissolves. Don’t boil—just warm it through.

3. Add Flavor:

Whisk in marshmallow fluff, vanilla extract, salt, and almond extract (if using). Keep whisking until smooth and creamy.

4. Blend the Toasted Marshmallows:

Add the toasted marshmallows to the saucepan. Whisk until they melt into the mixture. This step gives the creamer that signature toasted flavor.

5. Cool and Store:

Remove from heat, let it cool for 10–15 minutes, then pour into a clean jar or bottle. Refrigerate for up to 7 days. Shake before each use.

Tip: If you like your creamer extra smooth, strain it through a fine mesh sieve before storing.
