1/4 cup cornstarch
1/3 cup powdered sugar
1 envelope unflavored gelatin
1/3 cup water
2/3 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup light corn syrup
1 pinch salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Sift together the cornstarch and powdered sugar. Grease a baking pan.
Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of the sugar mixture into
the pan, tilting to evenly coat the bottom and sides. Do not shake out
excess.

Soften the gelatin by combining with the water in a saucepan. Let sit
for 5-7 minutes. Stir in the sugar and heat over low
heat, stirring, until all is dissolved. Combine the gelatin mixture,
corn syrup, salt and vanilla with an electric mixer. Beat
on high for 15 minutes until peaks form.

Spread mixture into the baking pan. Let sit until set, about 2-3 hours.
Slice the mixture into desired sizes. Roll each
piece in the cornstarch mixture. Place on paper towelling and let stand
until dry. Store in airtight container.
