Light and airy, sweet meringue-like candy.
Simply divine!
Divinity
- 2 2/3 cups granulated sugar
- 2/3 cup light corn syrup
- 1/2 cup water
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
2 large egg whites
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Walnut halves
- Combine sugar, syrup, water and salt in
a 3-quart saucepan. Cover pan and bring to a boil. Remove cover
and cook, stirring occasionally, to hard ball stage (260°F
- 130°C), or until a small amount of mixture is dropped into
cold water and forms a ball that holds its shape but is pliable.
- Meanwhile, beat egg whites in large mixing
bowl until stiff. Gradually pour in hot syrup in small stream
while continuing to beat. Add vanilla and continue beating until
mixture will hold its shape when dropped from spoon.
- Drop by spoonfuls onto waxed paper and
top with a walnut half.
Makes about 4 dozen candies.
Variation: Mix in 1 cup (6-ounces) miniature
semisweet chocolate chips and 1/2 cup chopped walnuts just before
spooning onto waxed paper. Omit walnut halves.
