Ingredients
- 3 packages unflavored gelatin
- ½ cup water
- 1 ½ cups sugar
- ½ cup maple syrup
- ½ cup corn syrup
- ½ cup water
- ¼ cup cornstarch
- ¼ cup powdered sugar
Instructions
- Combine cornstarch and powdered sugar.
- Line 8x8 pan with parchment paper, and cover the bottom and sides with half of the cornstarch mixture.

- Cut into cubes with a greased knife, or use a greased cookie cutter to cut into shapes.
Notes
Put the gelatin and water in the mixing bowl ahead of heating the mixture in the saucepan (or while it's heating while covered) to make sure it sits for at least 5 minutes before you begin mixing.
Grease your spatula with non-stick spray before spreading the marshmallow into your prepared pan to keep the mixture from sticking.
