1 1/2 cups Sugar

1/2 teaspoon Light corn syrup

2/3 cup Water -- boiling

2 Egg whites -- stiffly beaten

1 teaspoon Vanilla

Combine sugar, corn syrup, and water. Bring quickly to a boil, stirring

only until sugar is dissolved. Boil rapidly, without stirring, until small

amount of syrup forms a soft ball in cold water, or spins a long thread

when dropped from tip of spoon ( 240
