Not long ago, one of our dear friends sent us a few recipes for vegan, gluten free marshmallow desserts using marshmallow root powder. Today’s recipe comes from a pair of adorable, fellow vegan, gluten free food blogger twins, over at Sketch-Free Vegan Eating. Needless to say, we went nuts for the idea and hopped onto the website Mountain Rose Herbs to order some marshmallow root powder, and are now (im)patiently awaiting its arrival. While we have marshmallow dreams of all of the delicious delicacies that we will soon be making, we thought we’d share one of these recipes with you all in case you are able to get your hands on some marshmallow root powder sooner than us! If you make this before us, please tell us how it is because we are just salivating over it!
