Bubblegum Fluffy Slices Recipe
Introduction
Bubblegum Slices are a fun, fluffy sweet treat that’s perfect for beginners. These no-bake slices deliver a nostalgic bubblegum flavor with a light, airy texture that’s sure to delight all ages.
Ingredients
- 1 cup bubblegum-flavored syrup (or substitute with bubblegum-flavored drink concentrate or neutral syrup mixed with bubblegum extract)
- 1 cup marshmallow fluff (or melt regular marshmallows with a bit of corn syrup as a substitute)
- 2 cups powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Pink food coloring (optional)
Instructions
- Step 1: In a large mixing bowl, combine the marshmallow fluff and bubblegum-flavored syrup. Mix with a spatula or spoon until the mixture is smooth and airy.
- Step 2: Gradually add powdered sugar, one cup at a time, stirring continuously. The mixture will thicken into a dough-like consistency. If it’s too sticky, add more powdered sugar one tablespoon at a time until manageable.
- Step 3: Stir in the vanilla extract. If desired, add a drop or two of pink food coloring and mix until the color is even.
- Step 4: Line a small dish or baking pan with parchment paper. Spread the dough evenly, smoothing the top with a spatula. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to firm up.
- Step 5: Remove from the refrigerator and cut into bars or squares with a sharp knife. Serve and enjoy your Bubblegum Slices!
Tips & Variations
- For a stronger bubblegum flavor, use a bubblegum extract alongside the syrup or concentrate.
- Add sprinkles or crushed candy for a fun texture contrast.
- Use a silicone mold to create fun shapes instead of a flat slice.
- If marshmallow fluff isn’t available, melting regular marshmallows with corn syrup works well as a homemade alternative.
