Simple Candied Nuts!

I love buying the candied almonds, nuts and cashews at the Southern Christmas Show every year.

So, I thought how hard would it be to make my own at home.

It took 3 seconds to google on my IPad and within 10 minutes,

 I was scarfing down delicious candied almonds.

Here's the recipe I found online

1 Cup of sugar

1/2 Cup of water

2 cups whole almonds, nuts or cashews

1 Tablespoon ground cinnamon

Bring the sugar, water and cinnamon to a boil and add the nut of your choice.

Lower the heat, just low and slow.

Stir constantly until all the liquid has evaporated from the nuts

Spread onto a pan lined with foil or wax paper and allow nuts to cool

A sweet sugar coating will come over the nuts as they dry. 

These nuts are simple gifts to package in cute containers, for anytime of the year.
