Time 3h

Yield 72

Number Of Ingredients 7

3 cups white sugar
¾ cup corn syrup
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
¾ cup water
2 egg whites
1 (3 ounce) package fruit flavored Jell-O® mix
1 cup chopped pecans

Steps:

  • In a medium saucepan over low heat, combine sugar, corn syrup, vanilla extract and water. Bring to a boil, stirring to dissolve sugar. Heat to 250 to 265 degrees F (121 to 129 degrees C), or until a small amount of syrup dropped into cold water forms a rigid ball.
  • Meanwhile, beat egg whites until stiff; slowly add gelatin while beating until stiff peaks form. Continue beating and pour syrup mixture in a thin stream over the egg mixture. Beat until mixture thickens and losses its gloss. Stir in pecans.
  • Drop by teaspoonfuls onto wax paper. Cool; store in airtight containers.

I'm not a fan of divinity, but I made this recipe for my husband and he loved it. He said it was the best divinity he's ever had.

This recipe is a great base for experimenting with different flavors. I've tried adding chocolate chips, mint extract, and even citrus zest. They all turned out great!

I'm allergic to nuts, so I substituted the walnuts with pecans. It turned out great!

This recipe is a bit too sweet for my taste. I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but the divinity turned out grainy. It was still delicious, but it wasn't as smooth as I would have liked.

This recipe is a disaster. The divinity never set, and it ended up being a sticky mess.

I've made this recipe several times, and it always turns out perfectly. It's a great recipe for beginners, and it's also a crowd-pleaser.

This recipe is a fail. I followed the instructions exactly, but the divinity turned out hard and brittle. I'm not sure what went wrong.

I was a little hesitant to try this recipe because I'm not a fan of divinity. But I'm so glad I did! This divinity is light and fluffy, and it's not too sweet. I actually ate the whole batch myself!

I'm not much of a baker, but I decided to give this recipe a try because it looked so easy. I'm so glad I did! The divinity turned out perfectly, and it was so delicious. I'm definitely going to make this again for my next party.

This recipe brings back so many childhood memories! My grandmother used to make divinity every Christmas, and it was always a highlight of the holiday season. I've tried making it myself a few times, but it never turned out quite as good as hers. Thi
