Pour slowly, with constant beating over stiffly beaten egg whites; continue beating until candy begins to shine and hold its shape. Add nuts and vanilla. Pour into oiled pans. Cut into squares when cold. Candy may be shaped into a loaf or formed into irregular pieces by dropping it from tip of spoon onto waxed paper.
