Tips:

  • Use fresh walnuts. Stale walnuts will not have as much flavor and will make the chews less enjoyable.
  • Toast the walnuts before using them. This will bring out their flavor and make them more fragrant.
  • Use dark brown sugar. Dark brown sugar has a richer flavor than light brown sugar and will give the chews a deeper color.
  • Don't overcook the chews. Overcooked chews will be hard and chewy, rather than soft and gooey.
  • Let the chews cool completely before cutting them. This will help them to hold their shape better.

Conclusion:

Brown sugar walnut chews are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. With their chewy texture, sweet flavor, and nutty crunch, they are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them. So next time you are looking for a sweet treat, give these brown sugar walnut chews a try.
