Time 3h

Yield 72

Number Of Ingredients 7

3 cups white sugar
¾ cup corn syrup
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
¾ cup water
2 egg whites
1 (3 ounce) package fruit flavored Jell-O® mix
1 cup chopped pecans

Steps:

  • In a medium saucepan over low heat, combine sugar, corn syrup, vanilla extract and water. Bring to a boil, stirring to dissolve sugar. Heat to 250 to 265 degrees F (121 to 129 degrees C), or until a small amount of syrup dropped into cold water forms a rigid ball.
  • Meanwhile, beat egg whites until stiff; slowly add gelatin while beating until stiff peaks form. Continue beating and pour syrup mixture in a thin stream over the egg mixture. Beat until mixture thickens and losses its gloss. Stir in pecans.
  • Drop by teaspoonfuls onto wax paper. Cool; store in airtight containers.
