2 tablespoons gelatin (I buy mine in bulk at the health food store, sorry it's not really vegan)
8 tablespoons cold water
2 cups granulated sugar
1/2 cup cold water
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Dust an 8- or 9-inch square pan with powdered sugar. Set aside.

3 Combine granulated sugar and 1/2 cup of water in a large heavy saucepan.
4 Cook and stir over medium heat until dissolved.
5 Add gelatin and bring to a boil.
6 Remove from heat. Pour into a large mixing bowl and let stand until partially cool.
7 Add salt and vanilla extract.
8 Beat with an electric mixer until soft and double in volume. About 10-15 minutes.

10 Set to cool until it will not stick to your finger.
11 Cut into 1.5 inch pieces and roll in powdered sugar.
12 Variation: toasted coconut can be substituted for powdered sugar.
