Step 1: Prepare the Gelatin

1. Measure out 3 tablespoons of beef gelatin and place it in a small bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer.
2. Pour 1/2 cup of cold water over the gelatin and stir it gently.
3. Allow the mixture to sit for about 5 minutes to let the gelatin bloom.

Step 2: Create the Syrup

1. In a medium saucepan, combine:
   • 1/2 cup of water
   • 1 1/2 cups of powdered sweetener
   • 1/4 teaspoon of cream of tartar
   • 1/4 teaspoon of salt
2. Stir the mixture and bring it to a boil over medium heat.
3. Continue stirring until the sweetener is completely dissolved.

Step 3: Combine Gelatin and Syrup

1. Once the syrup is boiling and the sweetener has dissolved, carefully pour the hot syrup into the bowl with the gelatin.
2. Stir the mixture until the gelatin is fully dissolved.
3. Add 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract and mix well.

Step 4: Whip the Mixture

1. Attach the whisk to your stand mixer and start mixing the gelatin-syrup mixture on low speed.
2. Gradually increase the speed to high and whip for about 8 to 10 minutes until the mixture becomes fluffy and thick.

Step 5: Set the Marshmallows

1. Spray an 8x8 or 9x9-inch baking dish with avocado oil spray to prevent sticking.
2. Pour the marshmallow mixture into the dish, using a spatula to spread it out evenly.
3. Allow the marshmallows to set at room temperature overnight.

Step 6: Cut and Store the Marshmallows

1. Once set, run a butter knife around the edges of the pan to loosen the marshmallow slab.
2. Carefully flip the marshmallow onto a cutting board.
3. Cut the marshmallows into your desired shapes.
4. Let them dry completely on both sides.
5. Store the marshmallows in an airtight container at room temperature to maintain their fluffiness.
