Directions:
Combine the gelatin and ½ c cold water in the bowl of an electric mixer with the whisk attachment. Let sit.

Combine the sugar, corn syrup, salt and ½ c water in a saucepan and cook over medium heat until the sugar dissolves. Raise the heat to high and cook until the syrup reaches 240º on a candy thermometer. Remove from heat.

With the mixer on low speed, slowly pour the sugar syrup into the dissolved gelatin. Put the mixer on high speed and whip until the mixture is very thick, about 15 minutes. Add the vanilla and mix thoroughly.

Dust an 8x12 baking dish with confectioner sugar. Pour the marshmallow mixture into the pan, smoothing the top, and dust with more confectioner sugar. Let it sit overnight uncovered until it dries out.

Turn the marshmallow onto a board and cut them with a cutter that is a little bit smaller than the one you used for the graham crackers .
