I've never tried to cook divinity, but I've heard stories about others trying and failing, so when I saw this recipe I had to post it for safe-keeping. Cooking time is the drying time overnight. Haven't tried it yet---I bought a box of old Quick Cooking magazines at a flea market and am posting the recipes I want to keep as I go through them.

This is the recipe I always use and it works perfectly for me. Everybody loves it. However you cannot make this when the weather is humid. I was going to make this Christmas again this year but I can no longer find the frosting mix.
