No Fail Divinity #2 Rain or Shine....turns out every time!!!!

Just like my Mama made! I'm 77 and that's the one thing I really miss.

[@beebahscountrykitchen8683]

@@deanierobinson2089 it is a delicious candy! I am 71 and have made this for as long as I can remember. I will be getting ready this coming week to start making it again for Christmas. I hope you have a merry Christmas and thanks for watching!🥰

[@shirleyspadorcio6182]

Thanks to you, I made Divinity for the first time in my life last year after watching your video presentation. I will be making more this year to sell at our Church Christmas Bazaar…Divinity has always been my favorite candy too so I’m just so happy I found your channel.

[@beebahscountrykitchen8683]

Awwww….thank you Shirley!!! I am so THRILLED it worked out for you!!! Have a happy Thanksgiving and a Merry Christmas!! Thanks for watching and commenting!!🥰

[@patriciabrashear3675]

I am going to wait until after Christmas to make this as I believe my daughter is getting me a Kitchen Aide for Christmas (big secret). Previously through the years I have burned out 4 mixers.. Also I have the same pressure cooker you have. Was my mother's. Lost the lid along the way. As a teenager (many many moons ago) I thought I would make potatoes in the pressure cooker. Not really knowing what I was doing, I opened the lid, it flew off, hit me in the shoulder and potatoes all over kitchen ceiling. Never used one since but kept the pot for making candy etc. Look forward to more recipes.

[@beebahscountrykitchen8683]

I sure do hope that you get the KitchenAid for Christmas! They are absolutely great mixers. If you will be sure to cook your syrup to 268 to 270° your candy will turn out fine. Your story about the pressure cooker is too funny, you’re very lucky you didn’t get hurt really bad when that incident occurred. It’s a nice heavy pot and does very well for cooking the syrup for the candy. Please let me know when you make it, how it turns out for you. I hope you and your family have a very merry Christmas! Thank you so much for watching and commenting.🥰

My mama was terrified of the pressure cooker. A friend and I will try this recipe tomorrow- it's looks very do-able- thank you!

[@beebahscountrykitchen8683]

@@mac-rv5jw it pays to be afraid of a pressure cooker. They can be very dangerous if you’re not extremely careful while using them. Hope you enjoy the divinity. Let me know how it turns out for you. Thanks for watching and have a very merry Christmas!🥰

This certainly looks good Bee! I made the praline candy today. Now girl that is deadly, I had to have a long talk with myself about how you don't get one every time you walk into the dining room! I can see divinity being the same way. Do you toast your pecans for the pralines or the divinity. So now I will add these to my Christmas baking list. Looks like I will be wearing stretchy pants for a while. Take care.

[@beebahscountrykitchen8683]

That is HILARIOUS Cindy!!!! No, I do not toast the nuts. I put them in raw. I know just what you mean about the pralines! I have 1 left. I can't stay out of them. I have given several to different friends to keep me from eating them all. I made the divinity for someone else, so I don't have it around or I would be eating it too!!! I will be making some just for my Christmas table though. Glad you liked the pralines. Let me know if you need more pecans!! Take care!!!

[@charitywrenn3489]

This is my absolute favorite candy. I only get it at Christmas so I really enjoy them. I'm sending this to my Mama because I want to see if she does something different, she says hers won't turn out in the humid weather.

[@beebahscountrykitchen8683]

Tell her to cook her syrup to 270* and it will definitely turn out right! I just made another double batch this morning! Merry Christmas!❤

[@charitywrenn3489]

@Beebah's Country Kitchen thank you I definitely will

[@rosegriffis9982]

Probably my favorite candy! Love the extra nuts 🤪 🥰

[@beebahscountrykitchen8683]

Oh my gosh!!!! I absolutely LOVE divinity and especially with lots of nuts!! I was actually making that for friend that had ordered it for she and her daughter. She called this morning and Saudi’s was the best I had ever made!☺️

[@renorebe.]

This is a great video of how Divinity is made. I live in the high desert, where syrup "candies" at a lower temperature and we have many sunny, dry days--perfect conditions for successful Divinity. Mom always warned to not double the recipe, but now I see how easy that is done. My family always used Black Walnuts in Divinity and I have some standing by in the freezer. I'll make a batch soon. Thanks again.

[@beebahscountrykitchen8683]

So good to hear from you! It is no more difficult to double the recipe than doing a single recipe. The only thing is you need to make sure your mixing bowl is large enough to accommodate it. I also have black walnuts in my freezer. I may make some using the black walnuts. A friend of mine always had black walnuts in her divinity,. I have a cabin up in the mountains of North Carolina, and I have black walnut trees on the property. Thanks for watching and I hope to hear from you again!🥰

[@catslilcreations]

[@GraceLifeCounseling]

Hey Beebah! I found your channel by searching specifically for Divinity recipes. I have an old family recipe that has not worked for me. I tried your recipe once and forgot to add the salt to the egg whites, unfortunately. I knew something wasn’t right when I tasted it and immediately knew I had forgotten the salt. When I stored the saltless divinity, I stored it in a gallon size bag. The divinity became gooey when stored this way. How do you store yours? I am thinking the gallon bag isn’t the way to go. I will be remaking this next week, and will add salt this time! I look forward to watching more of your videos! Merry Christmas! 😊

[@beebahscountrykitchen8683]

Hi Lori!! I usually store mine in a zip lock bag or a Rubbermaid container. I’ve never had an issue with mine becoming gooey. Was it firm when you spooned it up? Make sure you cook your syrup to about 270*. It has to be at a brittle state when you pour it into your egg whites or it won’t set up. I am so happy to have you join my channel!!! I hope you will find my recipes appealing and tasty!! I am very honest when I make something. If I don’t like it, I say so. I hope you have a very Merry Christmas and I look so forward to hearing from you again!! 🥰

[@GraceLifeCounseling]

Thank you for the feedback! I will try again and see how it goes. I only cooked the syrup to 260, which may have been the issue! Stay tuned!

[@beebahscountrykitchen8683]

@@GraceLifeCounseling I can hardly wait!!!!! I hope it turns out good for you!!!

[@kenbender3535]

Hello, I wish I had watched your video before all of the others. Egg whites were cold ish,I didn’t do the water test, only cooked to 260*, added the mixture over about 45-60seconds and mixed for 20min. It never lost its sheen and in the end at least I burned up my handheld mixer😢

[@beebahscountrykitchen8683]

@@kenbender3535 oh my goodness! I am so sorry that you had such bad luck. I honestly believe when making divinity, you should use a heavy mixer. It gets really stiff and hard to mix so it may be too much for a handheld mixer. I know in the past people have done it with handheld mixers, but they are really not made to hold up to real heavy duty mixing. Maybe you will be able to give it another try using my method. I really appreciate your watching and reaching out to me. Take care and I hope you have a very merry Christmas!🥰

I absolutely love divinity. And I also make it with black walnuts. When I would go to Branson, I would buy Black Walnut Brittle. It didn't look like peanut brittle, but it was clear with the walnuts. I would love if someone could tell me how to make it. I enjoyed your video and I will be watching again. God Bless

[@beebahscountrykitchen8683]

Thank you for watching Vicky! I may research and see if I can find a recipe for black walnut brittle. I have some nuts in my freezer. We have black walnut trees on some property that we own in North Carolina so I may have to give that a try… Sounds really good, I have an elderly friend who loves divinity with black walnuts. I usually always make mine with pecans. Hope you had a great Christmas and thanks for the comment.🥰

[@margretrosenberg420]

I do have a working stand mixer, but I received it as a wedding gift nearly 50 years ago, and there are no fancy attachments available for it, like whisks or paddles. How important are those?

[@beebahscountrykitchen8683]

It just depends on what you are making. If you’re making divinity, your mixer will do fine. The only problem might would be the possibility of overheating your mixer because you have to beat it for quite a while and it gets thick. The whisk attachment would basically be used just for whipping things like egg whites, etc. Thanks for watching and have a great day.🥰
