How to Make Divinity
- In a heavy-bottomed saucepan, combine 1 ½ cups granulated sugar, ½ cup light corn syrup, and ¼ cup water.
- Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture reaches the hard-ball stage (265°F on a candy thermometer).
- Remove from heat and let cool undisturbed until the temperature drops to 220°F.
- In a clean, dry mixer bowl, beat 4 large egg whites until soft peaks form (about 1 minute on high speed).
- With the mixer running on low, gradually pour in the cooled sugar syrup in a thin, steady stream. Increase the mixer speed to medium-high and beat for another 2 ½ minutes.
- Reduce the mixer speed to low, and add 1 teaspoon almond extract. Beat until the mixture becomes thick and almost dry, about 20-25 minutes. This will take some time, be patient!
- Stir in 1 cup chopped walnuts on low speed until just combined.
- Drop rounded tablespoons of the mixture onto a parchment-lined baking sheet, forming small patties.
- Let the Divinity harden completely at room temperature before serving.
