Holiday Divinity
Take one bite of this Southern classic, and you'll see why its name supposedly originated from the word 'divine'! Divinity candy is nougat-like confection that typically has mix-ins like dried fruit and nuts. For a festive holiday version, candied cherries, candied citron, and pecans were chosen to be folded into the light clouds of meringue. Note that the nougat mixture will need at least 8 hours to dry until it is sliceable, so plan accordingly.
