Marshmallow Divinity Recipes

DIVINITY CANDY

Steps:

• Butter a 9x9-inch pan and line with a parchment paper sling for ease of removal. Butter the parchment paper as well; set aside.
• Combine sugar, water, and corn syrup in a heavy saucepan over medium heat. Continue cooking this mixture until the syrup reaches the firm ball stage, about 250° to 265°F on a candy thermometer. (It should be firm to the touch but still able to be flattened slightly when a small ball of syrup is dropped in cold water.)
• While syrup is cooking, beat egg whites with salt until stiff.
• Gradually add half the syrup to the egg whites, beating constantly.
• Return the remaining syrup to the stove until boiling again, then gradually beat the remainder into the egg whites until dry (no longer shiny).
• Beat in the vanilla just until combined.
• Pour into prepared pan and allow to cool. Cut into squares when firm with a sharp, thin-bladed knife sprayed with cooking spray to make clean cuts.

• Remove from the heat, and stir in the marshmallow creme, vanilla, food coloring and pecans. Let the mixture sit for about 5 minutes until slightly cooled and thickened. Drop by spoonfuls onto waxed paper. Chill until firm before storing in an airtight container.
