Its called divinity. Its made with egg whites and sugar.

INGREDIENTS
3 cups white sugar
3/4 cup light corn syrup
1 cup water
2 egg whites, stiffly beaten
DIRECTIONS
Cook syrup, sugar, and water to soft ball stage (a small amount dropped into cold water forms a soft ball).
Pour half of this mixture over stiffly beaten egg whites. Stir.
Cook remaining sugar mixture to brittle stage (a small amount dropped into cold water turns immediately brittle).
Add to previous mixture and beat until candy will hold its shape. Beat again by hand to re-aerate it. Drop by spoonfuls onto waxed paper. Allow to harden as it cools. Store in refrigerator with waxed paper between layers.

4 cups sugar
1 cup white corn syrup
3/4 cup cold water
3 egg whites
1 teaspoon pure vanilla
2 cups chopped pecans

In a heavy saucepan over medium heat, stir together the sugar, corn syrup, and water. Stir only until sugar has dissolved. Do not stir after this point. Cook syrup mixture until it reaches 250 degrees F on a candy thermometer, bringing it to a hard ball stage.
While the syrup is cooking, beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form. Once the sugar mixture reaches 250 degrees F, carefully pour a slow steady stream of syrup into the stiffly beaten egg whites, beating constantly at high speed. Add the vanilla and continue to beat until mixture holds its shape, approximately 5 minutes. Stir in pecans.

Using 2 spoons, drop the divinity onto waxed paper, using 1 spoon to push the candy off the other. This may take a little practice because the technique is to twirl the pushing spoon, making the candy look like the top of a soft serve ice cream. If the candy becomes too stiff, add a few drops of hot water. You will need to work fast when making this type of candy. After you spoon the cooked sugar and nuts onto the waxed paper, you're done. Cool the candies on racks completely. You can store them in an airtight container for up to 2 week
You can leave the nuts out.

Okay.. I'm gonna give you my TOP SECRET divinity recipe. Tell anyone, and my redneck cousin will pay you a visit.

This is an annual production that folks start asking for at least two months before the Holidays.

2 cups sugar
1/2 cup Light corn syrup
1/4 tsp. salt
1/2 cup hot water
2 egg whites, beaten
1 tsp vanilla

This recipe makes one batch. NEVER make more than a double batch at one time.

Bring sugar, syrup, salt and hot water to a rolling boil. Boil until you reach the "hard ball" stage. 254-degrees. DO NOT STIR.

While this is working, beat the egg whites lightly.

With beaters running, slowly pour the syrup mixture over the beaten egg whites. Continue to beat until stiff. Add vanilla and if you wish.. chopped nuts. Drop by teaspoonfuls onto waxed paper or a buttered sheet.

NOTE: Move quickly as the above recipe will begin to "set up" quickly. I use two teaspoons.
