List of Ingredients




DIVINITY
1/2 cup water
2 cups granulated sugar
Pinch salt
7 ounce jar Marshmallo Creme

Recipe




Put sugar and water in small heavy saucepan, and without stirring, bring to a full rolling boil. Then boil for exactly 2 minutes. Put Marshmallow creme in bowl. Add salt. Slowly pour in
syrup. Beat for about 17 minutes with standing mixer, until it loses it's shine. Then drop by teasoonfulls onto waxed paper.
They were perfect. After only a half hour, they were almost set enough to peel off of the paper. Just now made one more batch, and it is perfect too. Each batch made 24.
The original recipe said to "Stir by hand until it loses it's gloss." Good thing I didn't try that. After the first batch had been beating for about 10 minutes, I thought, "This will never work. There must be a mistake in the recipe, because how can you get divinity to set up by cooking the syrup for only two minutes?" But I kept going, and am glad I did. All of a sudden it lost it's gloss and I quickly made the drops.
Nuts would be good in them too
