By: Joanie Critchlow 
"I make these wonderful sweet nuts using pecans every year for Christmas. They are a true delight, especially if you are a lover of nuts. If pecans aren't your forte, substitute walnuts. Happy Holidays!"

Original Recipe Yield 1 pound
 

Ingredients

  • 2 egg whites
  • 1 cup white sugar
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 pound pecan halves
  • 1/2 cup butter

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
  2. Beat egg whites until soft peaks begin to form. Add sugar, salt and vanilla; beat until stiff peaks form and turn glossy. Fold in nuts and coat well with the egg white mixture.
  3. Melt butter in a 9x13 inch baking pan by placing pan in the oven. Evenly spread coated nuts over melted butter in pan.
  4. Bake for 30 minutes, stirring and turning nuts about every 8 minutes, or until butter no longer remains in pan. Place hot nuts on foil and allow to cool. May be stored in an airtight container for several weeks!
