Divinity!

I had a little help today making candy.Taste tester.
Yep, it passes!

Divinity
2 1/2 cups sugar
1/2 cup light corn syrup
2 egg whites
1 tsp vanilla
1/2 cup water
1/4 tsp salt
3/4 cup chopped nuts
In saucepan, combine sugar, corn syrup, salt and water. Cook to hard ball stage (260) stirring only until sugar dissolves. Meanwhile, beat egg whites to stiff peaks. Gradually pour syrup over egg whites, beating at high speed on electric mixer. Add vanilla and beat until candy holds shape, 4 to 5 minutes. Add nuts and quickly drop by teaspoon onto waxed paper.

Taste and see that the Lord is good; blessed is the man who takes refuge in him. Psa 34:8

Okay, Connie,

The last time I made divinity, we ate it (a little bit of it) with a spoon. I'm going to try your recipe and see how it goes!

Looks like fun!

I keep returning to this divinity post. I look at the photos of your family togetherness and think this truly is "divine." One more will only make it better!

Love you guys!
