Microwave Divinity

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

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.

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.

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

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