Ingredients
Directions
In saucepan, mix corn syrup, sugar, salt and water.
Cook, stirring, until sugar is dissolved.
Continue cooking, without stirring, until a small amount of mixture forms a firm ball when dropped in cold water (248F degrees).
Beat egg whites until stiff, but not dry.
Pour about half the syrup slowly over whites, beating constantly.
Cook remainder until a small amount forms hard threads in cold water (272-F).
Add slowly to first mixture, and beat until mixture holds its shape.
Add vanilla and nuts; drop by dessert-spoonfuls onto waxed paper, or spread in buttered 9×9×2” pan, and when firm, cut in squares.
