Amish Recipes
Homemade candies are delicious, fun to make, and they make great gifts. Here are some old, some new, Candy Recipes to add to your recipe files. Choose from Amish Christmas Candy which is a chocolate candy rolled up on waxed paper, chilled, and sliced or from Ms Downing’s Divinity. Since both candies are so different, you will probably want to make them both! Yummy!
AMISH CHRISTMAS CANDY
1 stick butter
12-oz chocolate chips
1 cup chopped nuts
5-oz colored miniature marshmallows
1 cup coconut, optional
Melt butter and chocolate chips until creamy. Fold the marshmallows into the chocolate mixture. Spread the nuts and the coconut,if using, on a sheet of waxed paper. Cover with the chocolate-marshmallow mixture. Roll up like a jelly roll. Refrigerate until solid. Slice and serve.
MS DOWNING’S DIVINITY
2 1/2 cups sugar
1/4 cup hot water
3/4 cup white corn syrup
2 egg whites, beaten to stiff peaks
pinch of salt
1 tsp vanilla
2/3 cup chopped walnuts or pecans
Boil sugar, syrup, and water to a definite thread stage. (When the spoon is lifted the syrup is stringy like threads.) Mix salt into the egg whites. Pour 2/3 of the syrup slowly into the egg whites; beat constantly and add vanilla while still beating. Reheat 1/3 of the sugar syrup to a boiling point; add slowly to egg white mixture, beating constantly. When candy forms stiff peaks, stir in the nuts and drop by tablespoonfuls onto greased cookie sheets. Cool. Store in airtight containers.
Enjoy!
