These are so fast and easy to make and look so pretty in a nice candy dish. This recipe only makes 1/2 pound (the program will not allow me a 1/2 so I put 1 pound...please ignore) so prepare to make a couple batches. They will go very fast.

1/2 Pound (change servings and units)

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups whole almonds, blanched (or cashews, peanuts, pecan halves, etc.)
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 2 teaspoons butter or margarine

Directions

  1. 1
    In a heavy 8 inch skillet combine nuts, sugar and butter.
  2. 2
    Cook over med heat, stirring constantly until sugar is melted and golden in color and nuts are toasted (about 7 minutes)
  3. 3
    Spread nuts on a butter cookie sheet or aluminum foil, separating nuts.
  4. 4
    Sprinkle lightly with salt.

Great with macadamia nuts! Just don't forget the butter on the 3ed step, you would end up eating some wax paper...

    Great nut recipe. I made half a recipe and they are cooling now. They have great flavor and very easy to make. It did take longer than 7 min. for the sugar to melt on the pecans so be patient. I may try them with a little cinnamon next time. But be sure not to forget the salt in the end.

    I made these a few days ago as a hostess gift and they were a hit. If I promise to bring more I'm invited back every week! I made one batch according to the original recipe, but made another batch with whole pecans and whole almonds, and added some apple pie spice to the sugar. It raised these nuts to a new level!

    Great recipe! I added this into my holiday goodie basket and everyone ate them up! I love the way the sugar and salt blend perfectly. Thank you for the recipe!
