It was my dad who inspired me to first try making this candy. He remembered it from when he was a boy. The ultimate compliment was when he told me my version tasted even better! My husband is a driver with a parcel service, so he works long hours around the holidays-which gives me time to make treats! -Shelly Matthys, New Richmond, Wisconsin

Tips:
- Make sure your egg whites are at room temperature before you start whisking them. This will help them reach their full volume and give your candy a light and fluffy texture.
- Use a clean whisk and bowl when whipping the egg whites. Any grease or residue can prevent the egg whites from reaching their full volume.
- Gradually add the sugar to the egg whites while you are whisking them. This will help prevent the egg whites from becoming grainy.
- Continue whisking the egg whites until they are stiff and glossy. This will take several minutes, but it is important to be patient. The stiffer the egg whites, the better your candy will be.
- Add the flavoring and food coloring of your choice to the egg whites once they are stiff. Be careful not to overmix, or the egg whites will deflate.
- Pour the egg white mixture into a lined baking sheet and bake at a low temperature for several hours. This will help the candy to dry out and become chewy.
- Once the candy is dry, cut it into pieces and enjoy!
