Place the butter in a shallow bowl, and set aside.
Place the marshmallows in a large microwave-safe bowl, and
microwave on High for 30 seconds to 1 minute to start melting
the marshmallows. Carefully stir the water and vanilla extract
into the hot marshmallows, and stir until the mixture is smooth.
Slowly beat in the confectioners' sugar, a cup at a time, until
you have a sticky dough. Reserve 1 cup of powdered sugar for
kneading. The dough will be very stiff.
Rub your hands thoroughly with butter, and begin kneading the
sticky dough. As you knead, the dough will become workable and
pliable. Turn the dough out onto a working surface dusted with
confectioners' sugar and continue kneading until the fondant is
smooth and no longer sticky to the touch, 5 to 10 minutes.
Form the fondant into a ball, wrap it tightly in plastic wrap, and
refrigerate overnight. To use, allow the fondant to come to room
temperature, and roll it out onto a flat surface dusted with
confectioners' sugar.
