Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Microwave Divinity Candy.
Step 1
To start your delightful candy-making adventure, grab a microwave-safe bowl and combine white sugar, light corn syrup, and water.
Step 2
Stir the mixture well until everything is nicely blended.
Step 3
Now, pop the bowl into the microwave and heat it until it reaches a temperature of 250°F (120°C).
Step 4
This should take around three minutes, but you can also test its readiness by dropping a small amount into cold water; it should form a firm ball when it's just right.
Step 5
While your sugar mixture is bubbling away, take a clean glass or metal bowl and beat the egg whites until they form stiff peaks.
Step 6
You’ll know they’re ready when the beater or whisk lifts out and the peaks stand tall and sharp.
Step 7
Once your sugar mixture is perfectly heated, carefully pour it into the bowl with the beaten egg whites.
Step 8
Mix it all together until the mixture loses its glossy sheen, which should take about seven minutes of gentle stirring.
Step 9
After that, fold in some vanilla extract for that extra touch of flavor.
Step 10
Now comes the fun part! Using a teaspoon, drop spoonfuls of your candy mixture onto a sheet of waxed paper.
Step 11
Let the candies sit and cool for about 15 minutes, allowing them to set perfectly before you indulge.
Step 12
Enjoy the sweet rewards of your hard work!.
