Homemade Tye Dye Marshmallows

Instructions

1. Line an 8 x 8 baking pan with parchment paper or foil. If using foil, spray the foil with non stick cooking spray. For either uses, sprinkle the bottom of the parchment/greased foil with powdered sugar.
2. In a stand mixer bowl with the whisk attachment, add the gelatin with 2/3 cup of water. Let it sit for 5 minutes.
3. In a saucepan over medium heat, mix together the sugar, 1/2 cup water and corn syrup. Continue cooking the mixture, without stirring until it reaches 250 degrees. Remove from heat.
4. Slowly start whisking the gelatin with your stand mixer. Then, carefully ( it's hot!) stream the corn syrup mixture into the bowl.
5. Increase the speed and add in a salt and vanilla. Continue beating until the mixture is bright white and shiny. This could take anywhere from 5-10 minutes, depending on your mixer.
6. Add 3 separate colors of food coloring into 3 separate bowls. Scoop a portion of the beaten white marshmallows and mix to color. Continue with remaining colors. You don't need to use all the beaten marshmallow, just a portion.
7. Spread the white marshmallow mixture into pan. Then, dollop the colored portions on top. Swirl gently to mix.
8. Dust the top with powdered sugar. Let them sit at room temperature for 8-10 hours.
9. When you are ready, spray a sharp knife with non stick cooking spray and cut marshmallow into desired sized pieces. Store any leftovers in an airtight, covered container. They will stay good for 2-3 weeks.
