Ingredients You'll Need:
For the Marshmallows:
3 packages unflavored gelatin
1 cup ice cold water
1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
1 cup light corn syrup
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 cup powdered sugar
1/4 cup cornstarch
For the Peppermint Layer:
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1/4 cup cornstarch
1/4 cup crushed peppermint candies
Instructions:
In a small bowl, mix together the 1/2 cup powdered sugar and 1/4 cup cornstarch for the peppermint layer. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, add 1/2 cup ice cold water and sprinkle in the 3 packages of unflavored gelatin. Let sit for 10 minutes.
In a saucepan, combine the 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar, 1 cup light corn syrup, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 cup of water. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the sugar has dissolved.

Slowly pour the hot sugar mixture into the bowl with the gelatin and water, while the mixer is running on low speed.
Gradually increase the speed of the mixer and beat for about 10 minutes, until the mixture becomes thick and fluffy.
Add in the 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract and mix until well combined.
Pour half of the marshmallow mixture into a greased 9x13 inch baking pan and spread evenly.

Pour the remaining marshmallow mixture on top of the peppermint layer and spread evenly.
