Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
3 cups Sugar
¾ cup Corn syrup
¾ cup Water
2 Egg whites, stiffly beaten
1 pack Strawberry jello
½ cup Coconut
1 cup Pecans, chopped

Directions

Combine sugar, syrup and water and bring to a boil, stiring constantly, reduce heat to low and cook to hard ball stage (252 degrees). This can be determined by dropping small amounts of mixture into cold cup of water. If it becomes stiff and hard then it is ready.

Combine whites and Jello beat until mix forms a peak, pour hot syrup in thin stream over egg whites and jello. Beat until loses its gloss and holds its shape. Fold in coconut and nuts. Drop in teaspoons onto waxed paper. Let set until they are hard.
