Steps:
- In large (at least 8 cups) microwave safe bowl or microwave safe batter bowl, place sugar, corn syrup, salt, and water. Stir. Microwave on high for 4 minutes. Stir. Microwave for 9 minutes more. While that is cooking, place egg whites in a large very clean mixing bowl (stand mixers are ideal for this). Beat until stiff peaks form. Set aside until syrup is done cooking. Remove syrup from microwave. Place on a potholder or folded towel next to your mixer. Turn mixer back up to high and slowly pour a continuous but very thin stream of syrup into the bowl while it is mixing until all syrup has been added. Add vanilla while continuing to mix. Mix for 4-5 minutes more or until divinity loses it's sheen and begins to hold it's shape. Quickly drop by spoonfuls onto waxed paper. Once it's all dropped onto the paper, quickly shape into smoother balls with clean hands. Press a pecan half into the top of each one. Store in airtight container. Enjoy! NOTE: Do not make on a rainy day! This is for about a 1000 watt microwave oven. If you have a higher watt one, then lower cooking time. You can also cook syrup on stovetop until it reaches 260 degrees on a candy thermometer.

MICROWAVE PECAN DIVINITY
I found this recipe when I decided to make Christmas candy and my stove didn't work. I don't have a candy thermometer, and it still worked for me. It was very tasty. I found it in a cookbook, but I don't remember which one.

Steps:
- It helps to get everything ready before you start: Chop or grind pecans and set aside. Crack the egg whites in a mixing bowl. Set aside. Line a cookie sheet with waxed paper. In a 1-1/2 quart glass casserole dish, stir together the sugar, corn syrup, water, and salt. Cover tightly with Saran plastic wrap. Microwave on HIGH for 5 minutes. Stir well, return to microwave UNCOVERED for an additional 4 or 5 minutes, or until it reaches the hard-ball stage, or 265 degrees on a candy thermometer. (Or when it forms a hard ball when dropped into cold water.) Stir and set aside to cool for about 4 minutes while you beat the egg whites. Beat egg whites on high speed of mixer until stiff peaks form. Pouring in a thin, steady stream add the sugar mixture to the egg whites while beating constantly on high speed of mixer until it starts to lose its gloss and holds together well, 4 to 5 minutes. Stir in the vanilla and nuts. Drop by teaspoonfuls onto the waxed paper about 1-1/2 inches apart. Allow time for candy to set.

- Place the egg whites in the bowl of a stand mixer and let come to room temperature, about 30 minutes.
- In a microwave safe 2-qt bowl (I used a large plastic one), combine the sugar, water, corn syrup, and salt. Microwave uncovered on high for 4 minutes; stir until sugar has dissolved. Cook 6-8 minutes longer, stopping to stir every 2 minutes and checking with a candy thermometer for a temperature of 260° (hard-ball stage). This took me exactly at the 8-minute mark. Just before the temperature is reached, begin whipping your egg whites until stiff peaks form.
- With the mixer running on high speed, slowly begin pouring the molten sugar mixture into the egg whites. It should take you a good minute or two to fully add in the hot sugar mixture to the egg whites - pouring in a slow but continuously steady stream. Beat until the candy begins to hold its shape but loses some of its glossiness - this could take anywhere from 15-20 minutes. Around the 15-minute mark, I like to check by spooning about a teaspoonful onto parchment paper; if it holds its shape, it's ready. Once it is at that stage, stir in the pecans and vanilla until just barely combined - overmixing will lead to tough and crumbly divinity.
- Working quickly, drop heaping Tablespoonfuls of the candy onto parchment paper. You should get anywhere from around 16-20 pieces of candy, though you can make smaller pieces to yield more. Allow the candy to sit, uncovered, overnight so it has time to set and dry some to the touch. Store any leftover candies airtight at room temperature.
