Spiced apple cider marshmallows

I adapted this recipe from two sources - Gourmet's recipe for Lillet Marshmallows here
and Francisco Migoya's post on apple cider marshmallows here.
I swapped out the Lillet for apple cider (Simply Apple, in this case). For spices, Migoya used cloves instead of nutmeg, I'm the opposite (not a clove fan) so nutmeg went in instead.

Turned out from the mixer right into the casserole and smoothed over

Marshmallows are a mess to work with, just do your best to keep your hands clean. Migoya also had a great idea in his earlier marshmallow post: Dust the sticky marshmallows with rice flour instead of confectioners sugar (I always find it to be sickeningly sweet). This worked well.

Dusted, cut, and ready to eat

The taste was subtle and cloying. If I do this again, I'll substitute apple brandy or applejack for a portion of the cider to see if I can boost the flavor. This was an interesting experiment.
