Directions

1. 1
   Combine the sugar, water and corn syrup in a heavy bottomed pot and bring to a boil. Stir until the sugar dissolves and then don't stir again. Boil for about five minutes-until the sugar's temperature reads 250 degrees F on a candy thermometer OR forms a hard ball when dropped in a little cool water.
2. 2
   Meanwhile, beat an egg white using a Kitchen Aid electric mixer until soft peaks form. When the sugar is ready, slowly stream it into the egg white with the mixer on high. Add the vanilla. Continue to beat for another five minutes, until the mixture is very thick and shiny.
3. 3
   Fold in the nuts and spread out into a foil-lined (and sprayed) nine inch square pan. Let cool for about thirty minutes before cutting into small squares.
