    Not sure what you want a recipe for, but could it be Divinity candy? Here's a great one:

    Divinity

    3 egg whites

    3 cups sugar

    2/3 cup Karo syrup clear

    1/2 cup water

    1 cup pecans chopped

    1 tsp cream of tartar

    1 tsp vanilla

    1/2 tsp salt

    Combine sugar, salt, Karo syrup, and water in a 2-quart

    saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until

    sugar dissolves and mixture boils.

    Continue cooking, without stirring, to 250 degrees (hard ball stage). Or until a small amount of syrup dropped into cold water separates into threads which feel hard but not brittle (soft crack stage). Wipe crystals from side of pan now and then with a fork wrapped in a damp cloth.

    Remove from heat. Immediately beat egg whites and cream of tartar in large mixer bowl until stiff peaks form.

    When syrup reaches soft crack stage, gradually and slowly pour in a thin stream of the syrup into egg whites, beating at high speed with the mixer until all the syrup is mixed with the egg whites approximately 5 minutes. Add vanilla and beat until candy begins to hold its shape and lose its gloss. Stir in pecans.

    Drop by teaspoon pushing off with a second spoon onto waxed paper-covered baking sheet. If divinity becomes too stiff, add a few drops of hot water. (Divinity should be about the size of a 2 inch ball). Store in airtight container.

    One of the key notes is this will NOT work if it is damp/humid weather.

    Test the hardness of the syrup in a small bowl filled with water that has been chilled with ice cube. When you drizzle some of the syrup into the bowl it is ready when it stays "floating" in the air and does not sink to the bottom. then WORK REAL FAST. Test a spoonful on waxed paper, if it keeps its shape after just a second you can start to spoon. If you wait until it is too firm, the last 1/2 of the batch will be too difficult to spoon out.

    You can pour this into a foil lined pan that has been Pam sprayed then cut into squares if you are not comfortable spooning it out.
