My brother used to make this every year.
Ingredients
- 2 ½ cups white sugar
- ½ cup light corn syrup
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ½ cup water
- 2 egg whites
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Directions
Step 1
In a 2-quart saucepan, combine sugar, corn syrup, salt, and water. Cook to hard-ball stage (260 degrees F, or 125 degrees C), stirring only until sugar dissolves.
Step 2
Meanwhile, beat egg whites to stiff peaks. Gradually pour syrup over egg whites, beating at high speed on electric mixer. Add vanilla and beat until candy holds its shape, about 4-5 minutes. Quickly drop from a teaspoon onto wax paper; cool.
