Place sugar, syrup and water in saucepan over low heat. Stir until sugar is dissolved, then cook without stirring to 252° (a little dropped into cold water forms a hard ball). Remove from heat and pour, beating constantly, in a fine stream into egg whites, stiffly beaten.

Continue beating until mixture holds its shape and loses its gloss.

Add vanilla and broken nuts.

Drop quickly from tip of spoon onto wax paper or spread in greased shallow pan and cut into squares when firm.
