Cover the cookie sheet with a thin layer of cornstarch.

Stir the ingredients together until mixed, then cover the bowl tightly and make as airtight as possible.
Microwave the ingredients 2-3 minutes or until the mix is solid. If the mixture is still runny, microwave for another 30 seconds at a time until firm.
Take the bowl out of the microwave and carefully remove the wrapping. Pour the contents on the corn starch-covered cookie sheet.
BEFORE TOUCHING THE MIXTURE, dip your hands in the cool water. Allow dough to cool slightly then pat the dough until it’s 1 inch thick. Let the dough sit three minutes.
After three minutes, dip your hands in the water again and flip the dough. Use your brush and dust any excess cornstarch from the dough.
Dust cornstarch on a knife and cut the dough into bite sized pieces.
Leave in the square shape or roll the squares into balls and slightly flatten.
