Candied Walnuts
I love using candied walnuts in my dishes and I love to just eat them as a snack. They can be very expensive to buy so I have started making them myself. I had found a recipe and thought the first time I did the recipe just as the recipe told me too but they didn’t turn out to be coated. The sugar crystallized and didn’t seem to coat the walnuts at all. Although it didn’t turn out the best, the mixture tasted wonderful and after I made my second batch and put them together I decided that I would always make two batches.

When I made this recipe the first time, I added the butter, sugar and walnuts together. I didn’t melt the butter first. I am not sure if the reason it didn’t work as well was because the pan wasn’t hot enough when I put everything together or what happened for sure. I found putting everything together at the beginning, the sugar didn’t melt but crystallized. Putting the two recipes together was so delightful.. Candied walnuts with small pieces of crystallized sugar.. YUM!
