Ingredients

  • 1 cup water divided
  • 1 teaspoon unflavored powdered gelatin
  • 1 ½ cups granulated sugar
  • 1 cup light corn syrup
  • teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  • In the mixing bowl of a stand mixer with a whisk attachment, mix the gelatin with ½ cup of the cold water for a few seconds, then let it sit for 5 minutes so the gelatin can bloom.
  • In a saucepan, bring the sugar, corn syrup, salt and remaining ½ cup cold water to a boil over medium­-high heat.
  • Continue cooking until the temperature reaches 240 degrees F on a candy thermometer, then remove from heat and pour over the gelatin mixture.
  • Add the vanilla extract and beat on low speed for 2 minutes. Increase the speed to high and beat for about 10 to 12 minutes until the mixture turns thick, white and glossy.
  • Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one month.
