Lime Divinity
3 cups sugar
3/4 cup light corn syrup
3/4 cup water
2 egg whites
1 cup chopped nuts
3 ounces lime gelatin, or any other flavor you would like
Combine sugar, corn syrup and water in saucepan; bring to boiling point. Reduce
heat; cook to hard ball stage. (Best to use candy thermometer.) Beat egg whites
until fluffy. Add gelatin in at this point. Beat until stiff peaks form. Pour
syrup slowly into egg whites, beating constantly until candy loses gloss and
holds shape. Add nuts. Drop by spoonfuls on waxed paper. Note: takes at least 6
hours for this candy to set after you set it on the waxed paper
