Homemade Marshmallows Ingredients 2 1/2 tablespoons unflavored gelatin 1/2 cup cold water 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar 1 cup light corn syrup 1/4 teaspoon salt 1/2 cup water 2 tablespoons pure vanilla extract confectioners sugar ( for dusting) Directions Combine gelatin and 1/2 cup cold water in the bowl of an electric mixer with whisk attachment. Let it stand 30 minutes. Combine granulated sugar, corn syrup, salt, and 1/2 cup of water in a small heavy saucepan; place over low heat and stir until sugar has dissolved. Wash down sides of pan with a wet pastry brush to dissolve sugar crystals. Clip on candy thermometer; raise heat to high. Cook syrup without stirring until it reaches 244° (firm ball stage). Immediately remove pan from heat. With mixer on low speed, slowly and carefully pour syrup into the softened gelatin. Increase speed to high; beat until mixture is very thick and white and has almost tripled in volume, about 15 minutes. Add vanilla; beat to incorporate. Generously dust an 8x12 inch glass baking pan with confectioners sugar. Pour marshmallow mixture into pan. Dust with confectioners sugar; let stand over night uncovered, to dry out.
