Old Fashioned Divinity Fudge Sister Cora Mae Longs Recipe! 

I know this video is 3 years old at this point but I had to comment when I saw you hold up that spoon over the pot! I knew in an instant what you’re doing because my grandma taught me to hold up the spoon and let the mixture fall back into the pot and look for strands that slowly stream into the pot like a spiderweb. You’re the first person I’ve seen do this on the internet. It brought back so many memories of my grandmother. I was 8 when she passed away and I’m 57 now and I still miss her terribly. Thanks for the memories.

I also go to a pentacostal church. Church of God from Cleveland Tennessee. My pastor has been at our church for 57 years. We have always cooked and baked for them. They are good people. Glad you are a Christian.

your a beautiful lady inside and out . Thank you for sharing this

First time watching you. Following you now subscribed. I seen divinity listed and made me think of my mom she used to make it. Mom passed away 8-19-2018. Thank you for showing us how to make it. God bless you all

I love the way u cook ! Just like my precious Grandma did !

My Mother taught me how to make all kinds of candy. We ALWAYS use waxed paper but ALWAYS put a piece of newspaper or roll out paper towel then put your waxed paper on top and tape corners to hold your paper. I agree with you on making candy while raining. Our homes have much less humidity now with A/C. We live in Louisiana too!!

Thank you sister for sharing your love and stories. And the candy looks great too

I am so thankful I stumbled on your vid. I truly enjoyed watching.

That turned out beautifully. Will try it. Thank you.

Our family loves you and ur cooking.

Oh my goodness, you remind me of my grandma with the bun and everything ♥️♥️♥️

I will definitely be making this ♥️♥️ Thank You so much for sharing this recipe with us all ♥️♥️♥️

Thank you for sharing this recipe for old fashioned divinity. The only way as far as I’m concerned. It’s August but I like to try and make things like this when I don’t need it so I’m ready for it when I do need it. Kinda get myself primed.

I'm making this for my family for Christmas. Thank you for sharing.

Great tips. You're right about the humidity. Just one thing if someone can not eat or is allergic to nuts they will NOT be able to eat any candy from this batch of candy.

I look forward to trying this recipe! I have great memories of my aunt making this when I was a little girl and I was basically there to lick the spoon and enjoy the divinity. We made it without any nuts and it’s the way that I will make it too. It’s my favourite fudge/candy of all time. May the Lord bless you and keep you!

I made 7 batches of divinity for Christmas presents. It's always a winner gift. I love how you made yours and I will be trying your recipe and method the next time I make it. My recipe is always a hit or miss! I will also try a spoon and a knife to drop the divinity. It looks so much easier than two spoons. Also, thank you for the thread tip and for showing me what to watch for. I can't wait to try this.

You are such a sweet lady. ❣️

My favorite Divinity Candy was sold in Macys Cellar store decades ago. It was cherry flavored. Throughout this whole time, I’ve searched stores and cookbooks and online videos. Only recently did I discover a note to use the juice from a jar of Maraschino Cherries to add to the mixture, to flavor the Divinity! You could probably try the green jar of cherries for the Christmas holidays and St. Patrick’s Day. The red cherries for Christmas and Valentines Day and even the US patriotic holidays like Memorial Day, July 4th. Plus the White ones. Don’t know about a blue version. Blueberries? Maybe a blue raspberry syrup like for the snow cone flavorings.

They look divine. You make it look so easy. Tonight was the third time I made them. Still dropped but not as much. I’m going to try again and watch your video 🦋

Looks delicious 😋

Love this Sister. Thanks for sharing with this Sister

Thanks 👍 so much God bless you always happy holidays

Thank you for sharing. I’m gonna give this a try. Haven’t had divinity since I lost my Momma.

Mexican vanilla is the best. I order two 33 oz bottles at the time.

Your recipe looks lovely. 🌸 Just a note of caution with some Mexican Vanillas. They have been caught using coumarin which is banned in the USA. As a possible carcinogen...

Just check to make sure the person doesn’t have any allergies to nuts. Because the fact the candy was in the bowl with nuts, it can kill then.

I like the microwave above the stove

I make my own vanilla extract

I go to a holiness pentacostal church. We believe in trinity, we're not oneness. I love looking like God told us to. He said he'd beautify the meek with salvation. We don't have to wear make up and jewelry to make us look good.. I know not all people understand till they truely get saved and hear preaching and read the king James bible. I was raised a Catholic , but I married a man that his daddy was a holiness preacher and I learned the truth . 🙌 I love baking sweets ☺️

Thanks for the video. I’ve always heard divinity is hard to make because it’s so temperamental. You made it seem fairly easy. Could you post the recipe in the description?

Have watched a couple of your videos recently, and it makes me think of my Mama's fudge. Every year for Christmas she would make all sorts of candy. My favorite candy was her Boston Cream Fudge with black walnuts. Used, "Pet" milk, too. Are you familiar with that fudge? I've looked many years for a copy of it.

Please give me the address for the Mexican Valletta I sure would love to get some. I've been on your video washing your cooked divinity candy I've washed everything you've done and read all comments Thank you so much love the way you talk and explain everything I do want all the recipes I just found you on my phone this event. Though comments Is Wonderful I've got to get your email address where I can get you I know all your recipes or great, I pray that our God will bless you & your family🙏🙏😇❤️

my grandma from iowa she bbeat it w/ her arms oh she was strong made breads too

Hi. Did u put 2 tsp or tbs of sugar in the egg whites? I think I’ve been over beating my candy bc it always dries out before I can get it on the paper! Btw are u Pentecostal or something else?

Oh, and we live about 3,200 feet above sea level. Would she need to adjust the temperature for the altitude?

Do you not use a candy thermometer? I use same recipe except I only use 1 cup of pecans which I cut by hand. I use room temperature egg whites.

Where can we bit the Mexican vanilla?

Yummy Delicious Darling..⚘🎚🍑⭐

Where can we buy the vanilla?

What kind of candy does she sale and how much is it ?I drop mine out kinda small cause it's so sweet and people may not eat the whole piece if it's to big.

Please help me understand. I made divinity this year in my Bosch mixer and it turned out perfect. But here is my question: I know the candy has to go from a glossy look to a dull look. But I also thought it had to be continuously beat to get air into it. I noticed that you took it off your mixer and let it sit a minute. Help me understand.

What are the egg whites for? They're not listed in the ingredients.

Where can you get that vanilla

Were is your son David love to watch you cook I don’t have face book

About how much do you sell divinity and fudge for? My daughter has been making honey comb candy and recently started making suckers, which she sells at school. I've been watching videos on divinity because everyone asks her to learn how to make it and she wants me to send her a video because she has no idea what divinity is 😂

Do you have to use a metal spoon on metal? It’s like scratching a chalkboard. I’m sorry maybe it’s just me.

Can you give the spelling of the vanilla please. Bless you

Question, why don’t you pour the Karo syrup first into your half cup and put it in to the sugar and then taking some warm water fill the half cup again and that’ll remove almost all the Karo syrup making it easier you can even fart back-and-forth into a Pyrex cup until you know you’ve dissolved it all. Everyone on RU-vid who makes this candy always does the water first and it makes no sense.
