Ingredients

  • 2 1/2 cups white sugar
  • 1/2 cup light corn syrup
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 2 egg whites
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions

  1. In a 2-quart saucepan, combine sugar, corn syrup, salt, and water. Cook to hard-ball stage (260 degrees F, or 125 degrees C), stirring only until sugar dissolves.
