Steps:
- Cook sugar, corn syrup and water (use 1 tablespoon less water on humid days) in 2-quart saucepan over low heat, stirring constantly, until sugar is dissolved. Continue cooking, without stirring, to 260°F on candy thermometer or until small amount of mixture dropped into very cold water forms a hard ball that holds its shape but is pliable.
- Beat egg whites in medium bowl with electric mixer on high speed until stiff peaks form. Continue beating while pouring hot syrup in a thin stream into egg whites, beating constantly on medium speed. (For best results, use electric stand mixer, not a portable handheld mixer since beating time is about 10 minutes and mixture is thick.) Add vanilla. Beat until mixture holds its shape and becomes slightly dull. (Mixture may become too stiff for mixer.) Gently stir in nuts.
- Drop mixture from buttered spoon onto waxed paper. Let stand at room temperature at least 12 hours, turning candies over once, until candies feel firm. Store in airtight container.

Steps:
- Beat the egg whites with an electric mixer until stiff. Line a baking sheet with parchment or waxed paper. Put the sugar, corn syrup, and water in a medium-size heavy saucepan over medium-high heat. Stir to dissolve the sugar, bring to a boil and cook until the temperature reaches 260 degrees F on a candy thermometer, or the hard-ball stage, when a bit of the mixture dropped into cold water holds its shape, 10 to 15 minutes. Remove from the heat. Pour in a thin steady stream into the beaten egg whites and beat with an electric mixer on high for about 3 minutes, scraping down the sides of the bowl. Add the vanilla, and continue beating on high just until the candy starts to lose its gloss, 5 to 6 minutes. When the beaters are lifted, the mixture should fall in a ribbon that mounds on itself.

Steps:
- In a 2-quart heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium heat, cook the water, sugar, and corn syrup until the sugar is dissolved (about 5 minutes), stirring constantly with a long-handled wooden spoon or heatproof spatula. Brush down the sides of the pan with a pastry brush dipped in warm water to prevent the sugar from crystallizing. Increase the heat to medium-high, place a sugar thermometer in the pan, and cook the mixture without stirring until it registers 256°F on the thermometer (about 10 minutes). Brush down the sides of the pan with a pastry brush dipped in warm water two more times during the cooking process.
- While the sugar syrup is cooking, in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, beat the egg whites on medium speed until they are frothy. Add the cream of tartar, increase the speed to medium-high, and beat the egg whites until they hold firm peaks (3 to 5 minutes).
- Remove the pan with the sugar syrup from the heat. Reduce the mixer speed to medium and pour the sugar syrup slowly into the egg whites, being careful not to drip the syrup down the sides of the bowl. Increase the mixer speed to high and beat until the mixture is firm and no longer shiny (10 to 15 minutes). Blend in the chopped walnuts and vanilla.
- Line 2 baking sheets with waxed paper. Drop 1 1/2-inch-wide spoonfuls of the mixture onto the paper, leaving 1 inch between them. Let the candy set at room temperature until firm (about 30 minutes). In a tightly covered container between sheets of waxed paper, the candy will keep 4 days at room temperature.
- VARIATIONS
- Substitute other nuts for the walnuts. Black walnuts are especially good in divinity.
- Praline Divinity: Substitute praline (page 147) for the walnuts.
- Seafoam Divinity: Substitute firmly packed light brown sugar for the granulated sugar. Reduce the corn syrup to 1 tablespoon, and add 2 teaspoons distilled white vinegar.
- Orange Divinity: Substitute finely chopped candied orange peel (page 210) for the walnuts, and substitute orange extract for the vanilla extract.
- Lemon Divinity: Substitute finely chopped candied lemon peel (a variation of candied orange peel, see page 212) for the walnuts, and substitute lemon extract for the vanilla extract.
- Ginger Divinity: Substitute 1/3 cup finely chopped crystallized ginger for the walnuts, and substitute finely ground ginger for the vanilla extract.
- Chocolate Divinity: Add 6 ounces melted bittersweet chocolate when adding the nuts.

- Set a large 6-8 quart saucepot over medium heat. Attach a candy thermometer to the side of the pot.
- Add the sugar, corn syrup, water, and salt to the pot. Bring to a boil. Once boiling, lower the heat a little if needed and watch the thermometer. When it reaches 260 degrees, remove the pot from heat.
- Meanwhile, set out a stand mixer. Place the egg whites and cream of tartar in bowl of the mixer. Using the whip attachment, whip on high until a stiff meringue forms. Turn off the mixer.
- Once the sugar mixture reaches 260 degrees F, turn the mixer on high. Hold the saucepot carefully with potholders and VERY SLOWLY pour the sugar syrup into the egg whites. Take your time to pour a slow thin stream so the sugar beats gently into the whites. Once all the syrup is in the mixer, add the vanilla extract and continue to beat another 5-10 minutes, until the mixture is white, and stiff enough to hold its shape when you lift it with a spoon.
