Homemade Marshmallows

1/4 cup cornstarch
1/3 cup Powdered sugar
1 pk unflavored gelatin
1/3 cup water
2/3 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup light corn syrup
pn salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Yield: 36 pieces

Sift powdered sugar and cornstarch into a bowl. Lightly grease an 8 x 8 square baking pan and sprinkle 1 tablespoon of the sugar/starch mixture in it. Coat sides and bottom. Leave all excess in the pan. Sprinkle gelatin into the water in a small saucepan and let it soak for 5 minutes. Add the granulated sugar and stir over moderately low heat until the gelatin and sugar dissolves. In the large bowl of an electric mixer, combine the gelatin mixture, corn syrup, salt and vanilla and beat for 15 minutes on high speed, until peaks form. Spread the fluffy mixture into the prepared pan and smooth the top. Leave for 2 hours or until set. With a wet knife, cut the marshmallow mixture into quarters and loosen around the edges. Sprinkle the remaining cornstarch/sugar mixture on a baking sheet and invert the marshmallow blocks onto it. Cut each quarter into 9 pieces and roll in the starch and sugar. Place marshmallows on a cake rack covered with paper towels and let them stand overnight to dry the surface slightly. Store airtight; marshmallows will keep for a month.
