Quick setting dry compound. You can buy it in the 15 minute variety and the stuff gets CRAZY hard crazy fast. Use it then tape your corners.

Here's what I've used in the past for doing just what you're describing. http://www.homedepot.com/p/SHEETROCK-Brand-Easy-Sand-20-Lightweight-18-lb-Setting-Type-Joint-Compound-384214/100321609

Oh yeah, and if ya really want to go wild, buy the 90 minute and tape your joints with it.
