I have a recipe for MMF that says to mix the melted marshmallows with the sugar on your counter top that has been greased with Crisco. Is this necessary or can I mix them in a bowl and then knead it on the counter? Thanks, Kim

I mix it in a bowl and then knead it on the counter.
It was fine doing it that way.

I mix mine in my KA mixer. I use the dough hook. I grease it & the mixer bowl. I don't knead it any longer since I discovered the KA can handle the MMF~ If your planning on mixing it on the counter top becareful because the marshmello's will be very hot! That's the main reason I use my mixer now! I've burned my fingers & hands several times~

i mixed in my bowl and then the counter ( wish i had a kitchen aid)
