My Mom makes these nuts every year. Hers calls for 5 cups of walnuts (or pecans). I feel this may help the greasiness issue some people are having. Or at least try with 4-4 1/2 cups. I stir mine about every 5 minutes to prevent burning. And I cool on aluminum foil.

Nice snack! Sounds like alot of butter but it all gets absorbed in baking and didn't seem too buttery after cooling. Might try cutting down on butter next time but will have to be careful.

These taste good but WOW, that's a lot of butter. I think it could easily be cut back to 2 or 3 Tbsp. and still do the job. I used almonds, walnuts, and pecans. The pecans were so coated with the mixture that they were unrecognizable. I may make these again with modifications, possibly adding some cinnamon for more flavor.

These are good, but too much butter. I had to put them on paper towels to absorb it.

I make these nuts every year at Christmas since my Mom gave me the recipe about 5 years ago and we all really like them! They are too hard to resist if they are in front of you! I make them for family and friends and they all really like them too! I agree, they should be put on parchment paper after cooking to cool. I wouldn't suggest paper towel though. I tried that once and they stuck to it.

Fantastic!! The only thing I did differently was to immediately spread them on wax or parchment paper to cool. Very easy to remove later on. Thanks for the recipe - sending to relatives and guests during the Christmas Season.
