SOUTHERN PECAN DIVINITY CANDY

Southern Pecan Divinity Candy image

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.

Provided by Jackie Garvin

Number Of Ingredients 7

Ingredients

2 1/2 cups granulated sugar
1/2 cup light corn syrup (I use Karo)
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup water
2 egg whites
1 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 1/2 to 2 cup pecans (chopped)

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.

MICROWAVE PECAN DIVINITY

Microwave Pecan Divinity image

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.
