Ingredients
- 1 tbsp gelatin
- 1 cup maple syrup
- 1/4 cup honey (or more maple syrup)
- 3/4 cup water
- 2 1/2 tbsp cacao powder
- 1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- pinch of sea salt
Instructions
- Add 1/4 cup water into the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment and sprinkle the gelatin on top to soften. Gently stir to combine.
- In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine ½ cup water, the maple syrup, honey, sea salt, and vanilla. Bring the mixture to a simmer, and use a candy thermometer to monitor the temperature until it reaches 240°F. Remove from the heat and be ready to immediately add it to the gelatin and water.
- With the mixer on medium-high, blend the gelatin and water. Slowly pour in the syrup mixture and continue to beat for about 10 minutes, until it triples in size and is super fluffy. Add the cacao powder and beat another minute or two until fully incorporated. Taste & adjust the flavor as you’d like (more vanilla, salt, etc).
- Pour the mixture into an airtight container and store at room temperature.
- If the fluff sets too much and becomes too thick, put the bowl over some hot water to loosen it up and beat on low until fluffy. Alternatively, you can pour the set fluff into a glass bowl and microwave for 15-20 seconds on low.
