This is GREAT!!! I just made it, and it came out crunchy, and perfect. If yours doesn't come out crunchy you didn't boil it long enough. When you are ready to pour it out leave in on the stove boiling for about 3 - 10 more min. Don't quit stiring it!!! Pour it out, and in a little while it breaks off, and it is YUMMY!!!

I have a recipe very similar to this one and often add dried cranberries. Yum!! Maybe about a 1/2 cup, I don't usually measure, just til it looks good.

WONDERFUL!! I don't trust candy thermometers-so I use the cold water test. I also put it in the fridge while it cools (mostly to keep my children from putting their fingers in it) have never had a problem with it turning out chewy as other reveiwers have. This is a wonderful recipe and VERY ADDICTIVE!! Thanks Nat!

This is a GREAT recipe. The only thing I did differently was increase the amount of cashews because it seemed like there was too much liquid in relation to the amount of nuts. In any case, it turned out awesome, and everybody I've made it for has raved about it! This stuff is like something you find in a gourmet shop. It's sinfully delicious and highly addictive!

Fantastic! Every time I make this, people just can't get enough of it. I use whatever nuts are handy, although many times I just mixed nuts.

Tasted great. Like others have posted though, it wasn't a crunch. It was chewy. I even put it in the fridge like another poster suggested. Maybe it needs to be heated to a higher temp? I'll try that next time.

This came out perfect! It is like cashews in toffee, so delicious. I added 2 cups of cashews so there would be plenty. Definately recommend to any cashew lover! Thanks for sharing

Incredibly rich. Very easy to make. The taste is mouth-watering and addicting. I gave this 4-stars, however, because of the texture and consistency. Either I did not use the correct pan size or my proportions were off, because the consistency did not turn out how I expected. It was soft and there were not enough cashews...certain portions of the pan were just sugar/butter solidified. (I, like another reviewer, expected a brittle. Ended up taking their suggestion and refridgerated for a few minutes.)

Recipe started out as a disaster but ended up as one of the best candies I've ever tasted. To start off, I added 2 cups of sugar by accident so I decided to add an extra 1/4 cup butter to even out the flavors. When I transferred it to a cookie sheet to set,I expected it to harden like a brittle would. It didn't so I put it in the fridge for a few hours. I ended up with a very firm but not quite a brittle-like texture but I don't care because it's so good I can't stop eating it and I don't want to share. This is one mistake I'll gladly make again and again.

Absolutely LOVE this recipe! The title should definately be changed to ADDICTIVE Cashew Crunch! I made 3 batches for a 10 people party and it was gone in 15 minutes! Great recipe and easy too!

Natalie is my daughter, and I'm not saying this stuff is out of this world for that reason. We all love when she makes this, it always goes pretty fast in the house. Best ever cashew crunch :)
