Directions Old-Fashioned Gelatin Divinity
Directions
-
In a medium saucepan over low heat, combine sugar, corn syrup, vanilla extract and water. Bring to a boil, stirring to dissolve sugar. Heat to 250 to 265 degrees F (121 to 129 degrees C), or until a small amount of syrup dropped into cold water forms a rigid ball.
Meanwhile, beat egg whites until stiff, slowly add gelatin while beating until stiff peaks form. Continue beating and pour syrup mixture in a thin stream over the egg mixture. Beat until mixture thickens and losses its gloss. Stir in pecans.
Drop by teaspoonfuls onto wax paper. Cool, store in airtight containers.
