nintendrunkMarshmallow Vodka Kirby

Ingredients (makes 3):
1 tablespoon unflavored gelatin powder or agar powder for vegetarians
1/4 cup + 3 oz. chilled marshmallow vodka
1/6 cup cold water (2 tablespoons + 2 teaspoons)
1/2 cup sugar
1/6 cup light corn syrup
2 large egg whites at room temperature
Small pinch of salt
1 tsp. vanilla extract
1/3 cup powdered sugar
1/3 cup corn starch
Vegetable shortening
Food coloring

Directions: Hold on to your warp stars! This recipe is a bit complex.

  1. Combine the powdered sugar and corn starch together in a bowl;
  2. Coat the insides of both the tops and bottoms a spherical ice cube molds (such as these) with a thin layer vegetable shortening, add some of the powdered sugar/starch mixture and shake so that the inside surfaces of the mold are well coated; return any unused powder to the bowl and set aside to use later;
  3. Sprinkle the gelatin or agar powder over 1/4 cup of cold marshmallow vodka in a bowl;
  4. Attach a candy thermometer to a small saucepan; add the water, sugar, and corn syrup.  Stir the ingredients a few times then turn the stove to medium-high;
  5. Using the whisk attachment, beat the egg whites in an electric mixer on slow until frothy, then add a touch of salt;
  6. Once the syrup mixture gets to about 210°F, turn the speed on the electric mixer up to fast;
  7. After the syrup gets to 245°F, carefully pour it into the mixer;
  8. As the egg white and syrup mixture is whipping, add the agar/gelatin and vodka;
  9. Add the vanilla extract and 4-5 drops of red food dye; continue whipping until the outside of the mixing bowl is cool and the mixture has grown 2-3 times its original size;
  10. Pour the marshmallow mixture into the greased and powdered bottoms of the molds (there should be enough for 3, but the molds come in sets of two - so maybe make 2 Kirbys and 1 Ditto?) to the fill line, packing it down gently; add the mold tops and store at room temperature;
  11. Once the marshmallows are set (6+ hours) take the Kirbys out of their molds and coat them lightly in the leftover corn starch/powdered sugar mixture;
  12. Fill a culinary syringe with about an ounce of marshmallow vodka (2 tablespoons) and inject it a little bit at a time into one of your Kirbys at various depths; refill and repeat with the other marshmallows (inject in rough or uneven parts of your marshmallows rather than on the smooth parts);
  13. The marshmallows might leak a little bit so store them on a paper towl on top of a plate until they’re relatively dry;
  14. Take a pinch of the corn starch/powdered sugar mixture and add a splash of water and a drop of red dye; mix it with a spoon, then use a toothpick to apply Kirby’s cheeks; do likewise for his eyes but with 2-3 drops of blue dye; and
  15. Serve on a yellow cocktail napkin cut into the shape of a warp star.

A note from the creator: 

“Hiiiii!”  This is our take on a Jello shot.  The marshmallow recipe is based on this one, which is great as it is… but then we found a way to make them look like Kirby and fit about a shot’s worth of vodka into each 2.5 inch marshmallow.  Inhale them! Copy Kirby’s drunk & friendly ability!  Spit them at your enemies!

The description above worked with unflavored gelatin; if you’re using a vegetarian substitute, you may need to make certain small adjustments.
