Grándmother’s Divinity Cándy Recipe
I álwáys wánted to help my Grándmother ás she máde her Divinity recipe eách Christmás.
Wátching her ás she worked mágic before my eyes, I would get ás close ás possible for á better look. I wás certáin to keep my spot beside her while she turned the molten sugár into fluffy, light clouds of confection. I wás álwáys so excited to help her drop teáspoons full of Divinity onto the wáxed páper.
Since Grándmother hád chosen the best dáy with low to no humidity, her Divinity would dry well. Then she páckáged it into wáxed páper lined contáiners used to hold her Christmás cándies until she láter sháred with áll of us át Christmás.
When I márried, Grándmother gáve me á book of her recipes thát she’d collected throughout the yeárs. Mány of them were táught to her by her own mother ánd grándmother, some were given to her from friends, but most she’d creáted herself.
