Vanilla cloud chocolates

 Vanilla Cloud Chocolates

4 T butter
2 C mini marshmellows
1/2 tsp. vanilla
4 C. powdered sugar
1-3 tsp. milk

 In a med. saucepan, bring butter to a boil over high heat.  Do NOT stir.  Allow to boil until medium brown hue, watch carefully, do not scorch.  Immediately add marshmallows and stir, stir, stir.  Remove from heat.  Add vanilla, sugar and 1 tsp.  milk. Beat with electric beaters and add milk as needed.  The consistency should be thick and sticky.  Pour into a 9x9 in glass dish. (or just a bowl) and refrigerate until hard.  Remove, and work fast while it's hard, roll into balls, dip in melted chocolate, decorate if desired. 
*These taste like Maxfield's chocolates to me and I think they would be even better if you added some extract-lemon, orange, etc.
