I love roasting marshmallows. However, it is not often that I get this opportunity. I live in a suburban area where outdoor fires are not permitted. So, I resolved to roast marshmallows on a smaller scale. Using a toothpick, I roasted mini-marshmallows over a candle. This could probably be done with large marshmallows over a fireplace as well.

You will need: Marshmallows, a candle, and a toothpick. That's all!

Now let's start roasting some marshmallows. First, light the candle. Second, stick the toothpick through the marshmallow with the end of the toothpick sticking out a little from the end of the marshmallow. Now, we are ready.

Roasting is simple. Hold the marshmallow about an inch above the flame and slowly rotate it. When it starts to get golden-brown or sizzle, than remove it. It should be golden-brown on the outside and should be very soft and squishy.
There is really no "correct way" to roast a marshmallow. The way you should roast yours depends upon your taste. This method just described is the method I have found to be best for my preferences.
Have fun!
