CHERRY PINK DIVINITY CANDY             Servings: 77

3   c.        granulated sugar         3/4 c.    light corn syrup
3/4 c.        water                    1   pkg.  cherry gelatin
3/4 c.        walnuts, chopped         3         egg whites
1   tsp.      vanilla

	Grease 11 1/2 X 7 1/2 inch baking dish.  Mix sugar, corn syrup and
water in a 2 quart glass measure.  Microwave uncovered on high, stirring
twice, for 15 to 17 minutes until syrup reaches hard-ball stage (260F on
an instant-read candy thermometer, or forms a hard but pliable ball when
a small amount is dropped into very cold water).  Beat egg whites in a
large bowl until soft peaks form.  Gradually add gelatin, beating until
whites are stiff and glossy.  Slowly pour hot syrup into egg whites,
beating constantly, and continue to beat 6-8 minutes until mixture is
very thick.  Stir in walnuts and vanilla.  Spread evenly in baking dish.
Let stand at room temperature until completely cool and set.  Cut into
one inch squares, and store in airtight container.
