It's a Marshmallow World in the Winter

This is What You Need:

3 envelopes of unflavored gelatin

Sugar

Powdered sugar

Vanilla extract

Light corn syrup

Salt

Water

 

 

Gelatin "envelopes". The usual suspects.

 

Put the gelatin in a standing mixer bowl with half a cup of cold water and let it sit there.

 

 

Now combine 1 and half cups of granulated sugar, 1 cup of light corn syrup, and 1/4 teaspoon of salt in a small saucepan. Cook on medium heat until the sugar dissolves, then raise the temp. until the mixture reads 240 on a candy thermometer. Remove from heat.

 

Very slowly, pour the syrup into the gelatin mixture while the mixer (fit with the wisk attacchment) is on low speed. Now turn the speed to high and just let is go for about 15 minutes.

 

liberally dust a nonmetal 8 by 12 baking dish with confectioner's sugar while waiting.

 

Here's what you should get...

 

it's like a winter wonderland...

 

Smooth it out! and let it sit uncovered over night.

 

The next day, run a knife around the edges and flip it out onto a cutting board. Cover these yummy Mallows with whatever you want! (chocolate. chocolate. chocolate.)
