  Almond Nougat

Ingredients:
1 1/2 cup Light corn syrup
2 cup Sugar
1/4 tsp Salt
1/4 cup Water
2 Egg whites
1/2 tsp Almond extract
Red or green food coloring
1/4 cup Soft butter or margarine
1 cup Toasted chopped almonds
1/4 cup Chopped candied cherries
Instructions:
DIRECTIONS: Mix first 4 ingredients in heavy saucepan. Cook, stirring,
until sugar is dissolved. Cook, without stirring, until a small
amount of the mixture dropped in cold water forms a hard ball
(250-F). Beat egg whites until stiff, but not dry, in large bowl of
electric mixer. Gradually beat in about one fourth (not more) of the
syrup, and continue beating until mixture holds its shape. Cook
remaining syrup until a small amount of mixture separates into hard
and brittle threads when dropped in cold water (300-F). Gradually
beat into first mixture, and continue beating until the mixture
begins to hold its shape. Add flavoring and food coloring to tint a
delicate shade. Beat in butter; continue beating until very thick and
satiny. Stir in nuts and cherries. Press into a buttered 8x8x2" pan,
smoothing top. Let stand until firm. Turn out of pan, and cut in 1
1/2" by 1" pieces. Wrap each piece individually in waxed paper. For
best flavor, store several days in a cool place before serving.
