Ingredients

• 2 cups white sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 2 egg whites
• ½ cup water
• ⅓ cup light corn syrup (such as Karo®)

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Beat egg whites in a glass or metal bowl until stiff peaks form. Lift your beater or whisk straight up: the egg whites will form sharp peaks.

Step 2

Mix sugar, corn syrup, and water together in a microwave-safe bowl.

Step 3

Cook sugar mixture in the microwave until mixture is 250 degrees F (120 degrees C), or until a small amount of sugar mixture dropped into cold water forms a rigid ball, 3 minutes.

Step 4

Stir sugar mixture into egg whites until no longer glossy, about 7 minutes. Stir in vanilla extract.

Step 5

Drop candy by teaspoonfuls onto a sheet of waxed paper. Let stand until cooled, 15 minutes.
