Steps:
- Sift the cornstarch and confectioners' sugar together into a medium bowl.
- Place a 9-by-13-inch metal baking pan over a clean kitchen towel and lube generously with nonstick spray. Then, thoroughly dust with one-third of the cornstarch-sugar mixture, tapping and angling the pan to ensure complete coverage all the way up the sides. Return any excess mixture to the bowl for later use. Set pan aside.
- Pour 1/2 cup of water into your mixer's work bowl and sprinkle the gelatin over the water. Leave to bloom for 5 minutes. If after 5 minutes you still see dry gelatin, drizzle on just enough additional water to moisten, then set aside for another two minutes. Go ahead and install the bowl onto the mixer and attach the whisk.
- Meanwhile, combine 1/2 cup water, the granulated sugar, corn syrup, and salt in a 2-quart saucepan. Place over medium-high heat, cover, and cook until the mixture begins to simmer around the edges of the pot, about 4 minutes. (Yes, you'll have to peek occasionally under the lid.) Uncover and continue to cook, without stirring, until the mixture reaches 240 degrees F, approximately 8 more minutes. If you notice sugar crystals forming on the sides of the pot, use a wet pastry brush to wash down the crystals. When the syrup reaches 240 degrees F, immediately remove from the heat.
- Turn the mixer to low and SLOWLY and CAREFULLY pour the hot syrup down the side of the bowl into the gelatin mixture. Do not pour it directly onto the whisk. Once you have added all of the syrup, gradually increase the speed to high and continue whipping until the mixture increases several times in volume, thickens, and the bowl feels just warm to the touch, 13 to 14 minutes in my kitchen. Then, with the mixer still running, add the vanilla and continue beating for another 30 seconds to incorporate. Reduce the speed to stir and gradually lift the mixer head to dislodge most of the marshmallow from the whisk. Turn the mixer off.
- Quickly transfer your new fluff to the prepared pan, using a spatula lubed with nonstick spray to spread it evenly. The marshmallow will set up quickly, so don't dawdle. Dust the top with enough of the remaining sugar and cornstarch mixture to lightly cover and allow the marshmallow to sit uncovered for at least 3 hours or, better yet, overnight.
- Loosen the marshmallow from the sides of the pan using a small spatula or butter knife. Turn the marshmallow out onto a cutting board and dust with a little more of the sugar-cornstarch mixture. Cut into squares using a pizza cutter or sharp knife rubbed with oil. I usually get 24 big marshmallows, but you can also cut smaller cubes for "mini" marshmallows that are perfect for hot cocoa. Once cut, lightly dust all sides of each marshmallow with the additional cornstarch-sugar mixture. Consume right away or store in an airtight container for weeks, if not months.

Steps:
- Place the gelatin into the bowl of a stand mixer along with 1/2 cup of the water. Have the whisk attachment standing by.
- In a small saucepan combine the remaining 1/2 cup water, granulated sugar, corn syrup and salt. Place over medium high heat, cover and allow to cook for 3 to 4 minutes. Uncover, clip a candy thermometer onto the side of the pan and continue to cook until the mixture reaches 240 degrees F, approximately 7 to 8 minutes. Once the mixture reaches this temperature, immediately remove from the heat.
- Turn the mixer on low speed and, while running, slowly pour the sugar syrup down the side of the bowl into the gelatin mixture. Once you have added all of the syrup, increase the speed to high. Continue to whip until the mixture becomes very thick and is lukewarm, approximately 12 to 15 minutes. Add the vanilla during the last minute of whipping. While the mixture is whipping prepare the pans as follows.
- Combine the confectioners' sugar and cornstarch in a small bowl. Lightly spray a 13 by 9-inch metal baking pan with nonstick cooking spray. Add the sugar and cornstarch mixture and move around to completely coat the bottom and sides of the pan. Return the remaining mixture to the bowl for later use.
- When ready, pour the mixture into the prepared pan, using a lightly oiled spatula for spreading evenly into the pan. Dust the top with enough of the remaining sugar and cornstarch mixture to lightly cover. Reserve the rest for later. Allow the marshmallows to sit uncovered for at least 4 hours and up to overnight.
- Turn the marshmallows out onto a cutting board and cut into 1-inch squares using a pizza wheel dusted with the confectioners' sugar mixture. Once cut, lightly dust all sides of each marshmallow with the remaining mixture, using additional if necessary. Store in an airtight container for up to 3 weeks.
- Combine the confectioners' sugar and cornstarch in a small bowl. Line 4 half sheet pans with parchment paper, spray the paper with nonstick cooking spray and dust with the confectioners' sugar mixture.
- Scoop the mixture into a piping bag fitted with a 1/2-inch round piping tip. Pipe the mixture onto the prepared sheet pans lengthwise, leaving about 1-inch between each strip. Sprinkle the tops with enough of the remaining cornstarch and sugar mixture to lightly cover. Let the strips set for 4 hours or up to overnight.
- Cut into 1/2 inch pieces using a pizza wheel or scissors dusted with the confectioners' sugar mixture. Once cut, lightly dust all sides of each marshmallow with the remaining sugar mixture and store in an airtight container for up to a week.

Steps:
- Grease a 9x13-inch baking pan with cooking spray. Line with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on all 4 sides. Coat parchment paper with 1/4 cup confectioners' sugar.
- Combine 1/2 cup water and gelatin in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment; let stand until gelatin softens, about 5 minutes.
- Combine remaining 1/2 cup water, sugar, corn syrup, and salt in a saucepan. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Clip a candy thermometer to the side of the saucepan. Cook syrup over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until it registers 238 degrees F (114 degrees C) on the thermometer, 5 to 10 minutes.
- Turn the stand mixer on low speed; pour half of the sugar syrup into the softened gelatin. Increase speed to medium and pour in remaining syrup. Increase speed to high and beat until marshmallow mixture is thick and creamy, 10 to 15 minutes. Beat in vanilla extract.
- Scrape marshmallow mixture into the prepared pan and spread it to the edges. Smooth the top with a rubber spatula. Sprinkle 1/4 cup confectioners' on top. Let stand until firm and dry, 8 hours to overnight.
- Lift marshmallow mixture out of the pan using the overhanging parchment. Transfer to a cutting board. Make a single cut through the center. Make 8 cuts evenly along the length and width to form 64 rectangles. Dip cut sides in remaining confectioners' sugar to prevent sticking.
- Layer marshmallows in an airtight container, covering each layer with parchment paper or plastic wrap.

My husband Dale's grandmother fixed these fluffy marshmallows only for special occasions. Since she had no electric mixer, beating the ingredients by hand for 30 minutes was a labor of love. Now, Dale makes them. They're delicious!
