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.

Time 40m

Yield 18-24 candies

Number Of Ingredients 7

1/2 cup light corn syrup
2/3 cup water
3 cups sugar
2 egg whites
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1 cup chopped pecans or 1 cup whole pecans

Steps:

  • Combine and cook sugar, syrup and water; microwave 8 minutes on High or until clear. Stir, cook 8-10 minutes more or until firm ball stage (260 degrees). Beat eggs and salt in a medium bowl until firm peaks are formed. Pour syrup over the whites and beat with a mixer until it loses its shine. It will be thick like marshmallow cream. Add nuts, drop by spoonful onto wax paper. You can also top the drops with a whole pecan if you prefer to mixing in the nuts.

Just made this tonight and it turned out great! I used dark chocolate chips instead of semisweet and it was the perfect amount of sweetness. It's a little sticky, but that's to be expected with divinity. Overall, I'm very happy with how it turned out
