Yield: 30 Pieces
4 c Sugar
1 c Light corn syrup
3/4 c Water
3 Egg whites; stiffly beaten
1 ts Vanilla

low heat until sugar is dissolved, without stirring, to 255°F or
until a small amount dropped into cold water forms a hard ball.

and loses its gloss. Add vanilla and nuts. Drop quickly from tip of
spoon onto waxed paper in individual pieces.
Tammy M.:
This is the very best recipe for divinity that I know of (course,
everyone will tell you that, but in my case, it's true ;-) ). It
comes from a woman who lived next to my grandmother years ago. Her
name was Madeleine, and she was a lovely woman, somewhat formal and
devoutly religious. Every year, she would gift us with a box of this
candy. Combat was waged amongst various family members over these
confections! The recipe is written in my grandmother's hand, and is
aptly named "Divine Divinity" as Madeleine's surname really and truly
was Divine.
