Steps:
- Grease a 9x13-inch pan with 2 teaspoons butter.
- Combine evaporated milk with sugar in a heavy, large stockpot and place over medium heat. Stir constantly and bring to a boil. Cook the syrup, stirring often, until a candy thermometer reads 235 degrees F (110 degrees C) or a small spoonful of syrup dropped into a glass of cold water forms a soft ball, 5 to 8 minutes.
- Stir pecans and butter into the syrup and continue to cook until solid crystals of candy begin to form on the side of the pot, about 30 minutes. Remove from heat and stir vanilla and almond extracts into candy.
- Pour candy into prepared dish and let cool for 10 minutes before cutting into squares.

SOUTHERN PECAN DIVINITY CANDY
I don't recall exactly how the conversation came about, but as a new bride, I discovered that my husband loves Southern Pecan Divinity Candy. Divinity is a traditional nougat-like Southern candy made with vanilla and pecans.

Steps:
- Combine sugar, corn syrup, salt and water in a 2 quart saucepan. Stir only until the sugar dissolves. Cook to 260 degrees (hard ball stage). I highly recommend using a food thermometer to make sure you get the syrup to the right temperature.
- With an electric mixer, beat egg whites until stiff peaks form. When the syrup is ready, slowly pour it over the egg whites while beating on high-speed. BE CAREFUL! The syrup is hot and it will burn the fool out of you if it splatters.
- Add vanilla and continue beating until the candy holds is shape.
- Add pecans, mix well.
- Drop by teaspoons onto waxed or parchment paper.
- Let the candy dry on the paper before attempting to stack it in a candy dish or storage container.
PECAN DIVINITY
The table at our Sunday school Christmas party has a spot reserved for my divinity. I love making candy and have recruited my husband to help...between nibbles.

Steps:
- In a heavy, 2 quart saucepan, combine the sugar, corn syrup, hot water, and salt. Cook and stir until the sugar dissolves and the mixture comes to a boil. Then cook to hard ball stage without stirring, 250 degrees F (120 degrees C.) Frequently wipe crystals forming on the sides of the pan, using a pastry brush dipped in water. Remove from heat.
- Just as the syrup is reaching temperature, begin whipping egg whites: In a large glass or stainless steel mixing bowl, beat egg whites until stiff peaks form. Pour hot syrup in a thin stream over beaten egg whites, beating constantly with the electric mixer at medium speed. Increase speed to high, and continue beating for about 5 minutes. Add vanilla; continue beating until the mixture becomes stiff and begins to lose its gloss. If it is too stiff, add a few drops hot water.
- Immediately drop by teaspoonfuls onto waxed paper. For a decorative flair, twirl the top with the spoon when dropping. Let stand until set. Store in an airtight container at room temperature.

DIVINITY CANDY
Making this traditional Southern candy works best on a dry day; too much humidity prevents it from setting. For best texture, work quickly when scooping the candy. If it's setting too quickly, stir in a few drops of hot water until smooth.

Steps:
- In a medium saucepan, combine sugar, corn syrup, and 1 cup water. Bring to a boil, stirring just until sugar dissolves, and cook until syrup reaches 250 degrees (firm-ball stage) on a candy thermometer.
- Meanwhile, in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, starting on low and gradually increasing to high, beat egg whites with salt until stiff peaks form. If peaks form before the syrup reaches 250 degrees, reduce speed and keep mixer running on low.
- With the mixer on medium speed, add the syrup in a slow, steady stream (taking care not to hit the whisk or side of the bowl). Add vanilla. Increase speed to high and continue to whisk until mixture holds it shape and begins to lose its gloss, 10 to 20 minutes. Prepare a small bowl of hot water for dipping and a 1-tablespoon cookie scoop or two spoons; line up miniature candy cups on a baking sheet.
- Working quickly, use cookie scoop or spoons to drop 1 heaping tablespoon candy into each cup, dipping scoop into hot water as needed to prevent sticking. Press pecans into candy. Let candy cool completely, at least 6 hours and up to overnight. Candy can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature up to 1 week.
