This is a very old recipe as I know it was handed to my mother by her mother. If you like making your own candy for the holidays this is a real winner.

• 2 1/2 cups sugar
• 1/2 cup corn syrup
• 1/2 cup water
• 2 egg whites beaten stiff

1. Cook until it will spin a thread.
2. Pour half of it into the whites of 2 eggs beaten stiff.
3. Cook the other half until it will harden in water then pour it into the first half.
4. Beat until creamy.
5. Pour into buttered dish or drop from a spoon.
