It’s so exciting to be writing on my new website!

I hope you’re all as excited as I am.  Jessica did a fantastic job and I’m really happy about how awesome it turned out.

Anyway, here’s my first recipe on my new website…

These are pretty much fool-proof.  I make them every year for Christmas gifts (because I’m a poor college student) and they’re always a hit.

Perfect gift, easy to make, and delicious.

Sweet and Salty Nuts

Adapted slightly from: All Recipes 

Ingredients

• 1 egg white
• 1 tablespoon water
• 1 pound pecan halves (or your nut of choice)
• 1 cup white sugar
• 3/4 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 250 degrees F (120 degrees C). Grease one baking sheet.
2. In a mixing bowl, whip together the egg white and water until frothy. In a separate bowl, mix together sugar, salt, and cinnamon.
3. Add nuts to egg whites, stir to coat the nuts evenly. Remove the nuts, and toss them in the sugar mixture until coated. Spread the nuts out on the prepared baking sheet.
4. Bake at 250 degrees F (120 degrees C) for 1 hour. Stir every 15 minutes.
