Default Divinity (Candy)

ObFood: Divinity.
INGREDIENTS:
4 cups sugar
1 cup white corn syrup
1/2 cup water
5 egg whites
2 teaspoon pure vanilla

METHOD:
Set a pan to medium heat; add sugar, corn syrup, and water
and stir until sugar has dissolved. Using a candy thermometer,
cook mixture until it reaches 250°F. Allow it to cook into a
hardened state.
As the mixture cooks, separate and beat egg whites into
stiff peaks. As the mixture reaches its 250°F, slowly add into
the egg whites; whip fully into whites. Add vanilla and beat
until mixture holds shape.
Drop divinity onto waxed paper. Work fast as mixture will
cool quickly.

And don't try to make this candy on a rainy or excessively humid day.
