Let’s Make it Together

To embark on this sweet adventure, we’ll break down the process into simple phases.

Prepare the Gelatin Mixture: In a small bowl, combine gelatin powder with cold water. Let it sit for about 10 minutes until it blooms into a jelly-like consistency.

Cook the Sugar Syrup: In a saucepan over medium heat, mix granulated sugar, corn syrup, and water. Stir gently until the sugar dissolves completely; this should take about 5 minutes.

Add the Gelatin Mixture: Once your syrup reaches 240°F (115°C), remove it from heat. Carefully stir in the bloomed gelatin until fully dissolved—be cautious of the steam!

Whip It Up!: Transfer your mixture to a stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment. Beat on high speed until it becomes thick and fluffy, about 10 minutes. Add vanilla extract during mixing.

Set and Dust: Pour your marshmallow mixture into a greased pan evenly. Let it rest at room temperature for 4 hours or until set completely before cutting into squares and dusting with powdered sugar.
