Ooh, candy! I made these a bit different by roasting the pecans in a saute pan on the stovetop and it worked out perfectly. I added a dash of salt for depth. These are so easy to make, and really delicious. Thanks for sharing this keeper recipe!

I ran across this recipe in Southern Living's 40 Years of Our Best Recipes cookbook last year (Spring 2008). I made it a few times, was extremely impressed and entered it into one of the county fairs in our area. I won a Blue Ribbon!!! This is exceptionally good and easy. As mentioned...DO NOT exclude the roasting time NOR the butter. I always use salted butter because it gives the candy the special flavor of salty/sweet. I use the chocolate candy coating discs...sometimes light choc., sometimes dark. It isn't necessary to use "top of the line" chocolate here. The simple discs taste and set up great and the clusters always turn out perfectly. My whole family loves them and enjoys receiving them as gifts.

You're right on when it comes to toasting the nuts before using them in this recipe, & it makes for some great tasting treats! Thanks for posting the recipe! [Tagged, made & reviewed in Newest Zaar tag]

Your right.. toasting the pecans does make the recipe! I think these will be on my Christmas tray this year. Reminds me of an old fashioned candy shop candy

Absolutely love these. No adjustments were made and divided among the 4 of us, no complaints. May have to make some more as I am enjoying my share during the baseball game. Made for PRMR.
