Ingredients:

4 cups sugar
1 cup light corn syrup
¾ cup water
3 egg whites room temperature
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup chopped pecans
Additional pecan halves for garnish optional

Instructions

1️⃣ Combine the sugar, corn syrup and water in a medium saucepan. Heat over low heat, stirring frequently, until the sugar is dissolved.

2️⃣ Bring the sugar mixture to a boil over medium heat. Continue to boil without stirring until the sugar reaches hard ball stage, or 260 degrees F, on a candy thermometer. You may need to adjust the heat a little to reach the correct temperature. Remove the saucepan from the heat.

3️⃣ While the sugar is boiling, beat the egg whites at medium speed until stiff peaks form.

4️⃣ Switch to the paddle attachment on your mixer. With the mixer running, add the sugar mixture in a slow and steady stream.

5️⃣ Once all the sugar has been added, continue to beat the egg whites until the whites have lost their glossy sheen and the mixture holds a shape, about 10-15 minutes.

6️⃣ Add the vanilla and chopped pecans. Mix on low speed until the pecans are evenly incorporated throughout the divinity.

7️⃣ Add the vanilla and chopped pecans. Mix on low speed until the pecans are evenly incorporated throughout the divinity.

8️⃣ Top each piece of candy with a pecan half.

9️⃣ Allow the divinity to dry at room temperature for a minimum of two hours, up to 24 hours.
