Title: Microwave Divinity Fudge
Categories: Candy, Nuts
Yield: 30 pieces
2 lg Egg whites
2 1/4 c Sugar
1/2 c Water
1/2 c Light corn syrup
1/8 ts Salt
1/2 c Pecans; chopped
1 1/2 ts Vanilla extract
Place egg whites in the bowl of a heavy-duty stand mixer; let stand
at room temperature for 30 minutes.
In a microwave-safe 2 qt bowl, combine the sugar, water, corn syrup
and salt. Microwave, uncovered, on high for 4 minutes; stir until
sugar is dissolved. Cook 6-8 minutes longer or until a candy
thermometer reads 260 F/127 C (hard-ball stage), stirring every 2
minutes. Just before the temperature is reached, beat egg whites on
medium speed until stiff peaks form.
With mixer running on high speed, carefully pour hot syrup in a
slow, steady stream into the bowl. Beat just until candy loses its
gloss and holds its shape, 15-20 minutes. Immediately stir in
pecans and vanilla. (Do not overmix, or candy will get stiff and
crumbly.)
Working quickly, drop by tablespoonfuls onto waxed paper. Let stand
at room temperature overnight or until dry to the touch. Store in
an airtight container at room temperature.
