No Fail Divinity Recipes

Steps:

• Cook sugar, corn syrup, and water in a 2-quart pot over low heat, stirring constantly, until sugar is dissolved. (On humid days, use 1 tablespoon less water.) Cook, without stirring, to 260 degrees on candy thermometer (or hard ball stage).
• Beat egg whites in 1-1/2-quart bowl until stiff peaks form. Continue to beat while pouring hot syrup in a thin stream into egg whites. Add vanilla; beat until mixture holds its shape and becomes slightly dull. (Mixture may become too stiff for electric mixer). Fold in nuts (if you choose).
• Drop from buttered spoon onto waxed paper. Let stand at room temperature, turning candy over once, until outside of candy is firm--at least 12 hours. Store in airtight container.

Steps:

• In a 2 quart saucepan combine sugar, corn syrup, water, and salt.
• Cook to hardball stage, (260 degrees), stirring only until sugar dissolves.
• Meanwhile, as temperature of syrup reaches 250 degrees, beat egg white till stiff peaks form.
• When syrup reaches 260 degrees, very gradually add the syrup to egg whites, beating at high speed with electric mixer.
• Add vanilla and beat until candy holds its shape, 4-5 minutes.
• Stir in the chopped nuts or cherries, if desired.
• Quickly drop candy from a teaspoon onto waxed paper, swirling the top of each piece.
• Let cool.

Steps:

• In a 2-quart saucepan, combine sugar, corn syrup, salt, and water. Cook to hard-ball stage (260 degrees F, or 125 degrees C), 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 its shape, about 4-5 minutes. Quickly drop from a teaspoon onto wax paper; cool.

Steps:

• Put Marshmallow creme into a large bowl.
• Combine sugar, water and salt in a boiler.

Steps:

• Combine frosting mix(dry), corn syrup, vanilla and boiling water in a small bowl.
• Beat on highest speed until stiff peaks form, about 5 minutes.
• Transfer to a large mixing bowl, on low speed gradually blend in sugar.
• Stir in nuts.
• Drop by spoonfuls on wax paper.
• When outside of candy feels firm, turn over and allow to dry at least 12 hours.

Steps:

• In a large mixing bowl, combine the frosting mix, corn syrup, 2 tablespoons boiling water and vanilla. Beat on high speed for 5 minutes.
• Gradually add sugar, 6 tablespoons hot water and nuts; mix well.

Steps:

• Mix sugar, corn syrup, and water together in a microwave-safe bowl.
• Cook sugar mixture in the microwave until mixture is 250 degrees F (120 degrees C), or until a small amount of sugar mixture dropped into cold water forms a rigid ball, 3 minutes.
• Beat egg whites in a glass or metal bowl until stiff peaks form. Lift your beater or whisk straight up: the egg whites will form sharp peaks.
• Stir sugar mixture into egg whites until no longer glossy, about 7 minutes. Stir in vanilla extract.
• Drop candy by teaspoonfuls onto a sheet of waxed paper. Let stand until cooled, 15 minutes.
