Homemade DIVINITY!

Homemade Divinity ....start to finish from my moms kitchen! Thanks for the demo mom! You’re the best! ❤️🎄 DIVINITY CANDY In a 2 quart aluminum pan add 2 cups of sugar. Stir in 1/2 cup light corn syrup , 1/2 cup water and a dash of salt. Stir till dissolved and bring to a boil. Boil to medium-ball stage (240 degrees). Slowly pour 1/3 of the syrup over 2 stiff beaten egg whites, beating constantly. Cook remaining syrup to very hard-ball stage (265 degrees). Test: Add several drops to water. Mixture will form a firm ribbon that bends when lifted from water. Beat syrup in candy mixture; continue beating. When mixture holds its shape when dropped from a spoon, beat in 1 teaspoon vanilla. Drop from teaspoon onto parchment paper or a greased cookie sheet. Swirl each piece to a peak. Let cool for 1 hour. Store loosely covered. Don’t use a tight fitting lid. Double cooking takes longer, but it’s a failure proof way to make fluffy Divinity!
