Welcome!

This is a collection of recipes passed down by the Houghton sisters ~
Barbara, Dorcas & Frances.


An idea that became a reality when family bonded together to gather recipes from the past. I would like to thank everyone for their submissions. Many a memory we have from these tasty treats and hopefully by putting them all together ~
many more can be made.


Enjoy!

***THIS IS STILL UNDER CONSTRUCTION ~ I THANK YOU FOR YOUR PATIENCE.

Divinity Fudge

Divinity Fudge


2 c white sugar

½ c corn syrup

½ c cold water

2 egg whites (beaten stiff)

1 tsp vanilla

Combine sugar, corn syrup, and water in saucepan. Cook, stirring until sugar dissolves. Then cook over low heat, without stirring, to hard ball stage (265 degrees - or until makes a long hair-like strand).

Put whites and salt in large bowl; beat on high speed until stiff (about 2 1/2 minutes). Slowly pour hot syrup into egg whites while continuing to beat until mixture thickens. Add vanilla and chopped nuts or cherries; beat until mixture will hold its shape. Drop from a teaspoon onto waxed paper.
