    THE MAMA'S COOK BOOK - Katie Quinney

    Recipe Introduction


    "Try our candies--then you'll see
    They're so sweet--and so are we."

    The MAMA'S COOK BOOK was prepared by the Pre-School Group of the Louisville (Georgia) Parent Teacher Association many years ago when most women knew the ins and outs of cooking. Therefore part of the directions are sometimes left out.

    List of Ingredients




    2 1/2 cups sugar
    1/2 cup water
    3/4 cup white Karo syrup
    Pinch of salt
    2 egg whites
    Nuts of any kind
    1 tsp. vanilla

    (Don't make Divinity on a rainy humid day)

    Recipe



    Mix sugar, water, syrup and salt together. Stir until sugar is dissolved. Cook without stirring until syrup will spin a thread from spoon. Beat egg whites stiff. Gradually pour hot syrup over egg whites beating constantly. Add vanilla and beat until stiff. Stir in nuts. Drop by spoonfuls on waxed paper.
