Marshmallow Fluff is one of our most popular products but it’s surprising how many Facebook messages, Tweets and emails we get from people asking what they actually do with it once they’ve bought it!

There’s no definitive answer to this, it’s an incredibly versatile ingredient. In the past we’ve suggested trying it on toast (it’s really tasty, honestly!), making s’mores and just eating it right out of the jar, though this last one can be a bit sickly after a while!

So what we’re going to do here is give you three very different but equally delicious recipe ideas for using Marshmallow Fluff. Enjoy – and let us know if you try them and how they were.

Sweet Potato Soufflé

Yes, Marshmallow Fluff is sweet – but that doesn’t mean it can’t be used in savoury dishes. This is a “to-die-for” option.

You Will Need:

2 x 29 oz cans of cooked sweet potatoes (yes, you can cook your own and guess on the amount you’d need)
3 eggs, beaten
1/4 cup (2 fl ozs.) of warm milk
2 tablespoons of butter, melted
1/2 teaspoon of salt
1 x 7 1/2 oz. jar of Marshmallow Fluff

What To Do: 

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit
Lightly grease a 3 litre soufflé or casserole dish
Beat the sweet potato in a large bowl until smooth
Beat in the eggs, salt, butter and 1/3 of the Marshmallow Fluff
Put into the soufflé dish and bake for around 20 minutes
Remove from the oven and increase the temperature to 550 Fahrenheit
Use the remaining Marshmallow Fluff to cover the potatoes, spreading right to the edge of the dish
Return to the oven for six or seven minutes until browned and puffed up

It’ll taste sweet and delicious and will make a fantastic side dish to a main course.

Fluff Chocolate Krispie Bars

This one is great for getting the kids to help with – it’s messy, fun and makes some great treats.

You Will Need:

1 x 7 1/2 oz jar of Marshmallow Fluff
1 x 12 oz pack of semi sweet chocolate pieces
1/3 (2.7 fl ozs.) cup of butter
5 cups of Kellogg’s Rice Krispies

What To Do: 

Melt the butter in a large saucepan over a low heat
Add all the Fluff and continue to heat for 5 minutes on low, stirring constantly
Stir in the chocolate until melted and blended
Remove from the heat and stir in the Rice Krispies until well coated
Using a spatula, press the mixture into a buttered, 2-inch deep pan (13in x 9in is best)
Leave to cool, then cut into 2in squares and serve

Perfect for the kids and adults alike!

Fluffernutter Shake

Time for a well earned drink, and one with the perfect American ingredients – namely, Fluff and peanut butter! Keep reading! It’s worth it.

You Will Need:

1 cup (8 fl ozs.) of chilled milk
2 tablespoons of smooth peanut butter
2 large tablespoons of Marshmallow Fluff

What To Do:

Put it in a blender. Blend it until smooth. Erm. That’s it.

How does that sound? Yes, we were sceptical too, but it’s fab!

So next time you’re browsing the shop, see the Fluff but are put off by the fact you have NO idea what to do with it, there’s three recipes to get you going. There are, of course, variations on these recipes and a whole load more on top. In the meantime, why not share your recipe ideas with us? We’ll try anything new!
