Glazed Nuts

Description: 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.

Ingredients:

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

Steps:

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