THIS CANDY IS USUALLY ONLY MADE DURING THE EASTER HOLIDAYS 1. Preheat oven to
350F. degrees. Spread filberts and almonds on cookie sheet. Toast in oven 10
minutes, until golden. 2. In heavy, straight-side, 3-quart saucepan, combine
sugar, corn syrup, honey, salt, and 1/4 cup water. Stir over medium heat, until
sugar is dissolved. Continue cooking, without stirring, to 252F. on candy
thermometer, or until a small amount in cold water forms a hard ball. 3.
Meanwhile, in large bowl of electric mixer, at high speed, beat egg whites
until
stiff peaks form. 4. In thin stream, pour about 1/4 of hot syrup over egg
whites, beating constantly, at high speed, 5 minutes until mixture is stiff
enough to hold its shape. Cook rest of syrup to 315-318F. on candy
thermometer,
or until a small amount in cold water forms brittle threads. 5. In thin
stream,
pour hot syrup over meringue, beating constantly, at high speed, until stiff
enough to hold its shape. 6. Add vanilla and butter, beating until thickened
again--about 5 minutes. With wooden spoon stir in toasted nuts. 7.
Turn mixture into buttered 11x7x1-1/4 inch pan.
Smooth top with a spatula. Refrigerate until firm. 8.
Loosen edge of candy all around; turn out in large block. With sharp knife, cut
into 1-1/2x1-inch pieces.
9. Wrap each in waxed paper. Refrigerate. Yield: Makes 2-1/2 pounds
