When you knead it use a combination of corn starch and icing sugar. The cornstarch takes away a lot of the greasey look.
Hope this helps.

Good flavor but had greasy appearance by: Anonymous
I was trying out different fondant recipes and this was the second one I tried. Everyone who tasted the cakes covered in fondant liked the flavor of the rolled buttercream to the marshmallow fondant, but I found this one more difficult to work with as it didn't stay together as well as the other, it tore much easier and when on the cake it had a greasy appearance that I couldn't get rid of. If you were going on flavor alone this recipe is a winner. If anyone has made this and found a way to get rid of the greasy look I'd love to hear how you did it.
