24 Servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
2½ cup Sugar
½ cup Water
1 cup Pecans
½ cup White corn syrup
⅛ teaspoon Salt
1 teaspoon Vanilla
2 Egg whites; stiffly beaten

Directions

Heat sugar, water, corn syrup & salt. Stir constantly until sugar has dissolved. Continue cooking until syrup spins a thread (234-238 degrees).

Slowly pour half of syrup over egg whites, beating constantly by hand or mixer. Cook other half until it forms a hard ball in cold water (248-254 degrees). Proceed as before, beating until stiff enough to shape. Fold in vanilla & nuts. Drop with spoon onto waxed paper. Decorate with cherries or pecans.
