Ingredients
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 2 packets of unflavored gelatin
- 1 cup water divided
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup light corn syrup
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 3 ounces strawberry jello
- 3 teaspoons strawberry extract
- 2 drops red gel food coloring
Instructions
- In a small bowl, add in the unflavored gelatine and 1/2 cup of water. Let bloom.
- In a large saucepan, add in the sugar, corn syrup, the remaining 1/2 cup water, and salt. Place over medium heat and let it come up to 240 degrees F.
- Add the strawberry jello to the large saucepan and stir to combine.
- Add the bloomed gelatin to a stand mixer bowl and slowly begin to pour the hot sugar into the bowl. This will help dissolve the gelatin.
- Begin whipping the mixture with the whisk attachment for 8 to 10 minutes until fluffy and stiff.
- While the marshmallow mixture is whipping, prepare the pan.
- Lightly spray an 8×8 inch square pan with nonstick baking spray.
- In a small bowl, combine the powdered sugar and cornstarch. Reserve half of the mixture to dust the top of the marshmallows.
- Dust the greased pan with the powdered sugar and cornstarch mixture.
- In the last 1 minute of beating, add the strawberry extract and food coloring. Continue to beat.
- Pour the marshmallow mixture into the prepared pan.
- If you want a red swirl in your marshmallows add an additional 1 to 2 drops of food coloring on either side of the mixture and use a skewer to swirl it around.
- Add the remaining powdered sugar/cornstarch mixture on top of the marshmallows. Spread it to cover all of the marshmallows.
- Let the marshmallows rest for at least 4 hours to firm up before cutting. Overnight is best.
- Using a sharp knife or pizza cutter, cut the marshmallows into 12 pieces. If the marshmallows are sticky, dust the knife with some of the powdered sugar/cornstarch mixture.
- Toss the marshmallows in additional powdered sugar so the sides aren’t sticky.
