INGREDIENTS
4pkts Unflavoured Gelatin
1 cup Cold Water, divided in two
2tsp Vanilla Extract
1/2 Cup Sugar or Sweetener (spoon for spoon type)
3 Egg Whites
METHOD
Put 1/2 cup water in a pie pan & sprinkle gelatin evenly over the water. Stand for 5 minutes to soften.
Bring the other 1/2 cup water to boil in a small pot. Remove from stove and add gelatin mixture. Stir until gelatin completely dissolved.
Stir in vanilla and sugar/sweetener.
Chill until mix no longer warm to touch, but not thickened at all. About 15 minutes, stirring every 5 minutes. Remove from fridge
Meanwhile, beat egg whites until soft & fluffy, but still airy.
Slowly add gelatin in a thin stream while beating. Beat on high spead until mix is light & fluffy and looks like marshmallow creme. It should about double in volume.
Immediately spread in a shallow pan. This must be done quickly before the gelatin sets.
Chill until set.
Cut and store in fridge.
NOTE
If it has a strong gelatin flavour, it should go away as it ages.
