A friend gave me this recipe after I went crazy over them. I make them every Thanksgiving and Christmas. Everyone just loves them Last year my 13 year old grandson requested the recipe so that he could make them himself. (They look real nice sprinkled over a cookie platter.)

Time 1h10m

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 egg white
1 tsp cold water
1 lb pecan halves
1/3 c brown sugar, firmly packed
3 Tbsp sugar
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 tsp cinnamon (or a little more)

Steps:

  • 1. Beat egg white slightly. Add water and beat until frothy, but not thick. Add pecans and sir so they are all well coated.
  • 2. Mix remaining ingredients and add to nuts. Toss well to coat.
  • 3. Pour mixture onto a greased cookie sheet and bake in 250 oven for one hour. Stir occasionally while baking.
  • 4. Bet you can't eat just one!!

Tips:

  • Use fresh pecan halves. Fresh pecans will have a better flavor and texture than stale or old pecans.
  • Toast the pecans before frosting them. This will help to bring out their flavor and make them more crispy.
  • Use a thick frosting. A thick frosting will help to coat the pecans evenly and prevent them from becoming soggy.
  • Be patient when frosting the pecans. It takes a little time to coat each pecan evenly, so be patient and don't rush the process.
  • Let the frosted pecans cool completely before storing them. This will help to prevent them from sticking together.

Conclusion:

Frosted pecans are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. They can be enjoyed on their own, used as a topping for desserts, or given as gifts. With just a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a batch of frosted pecans that everyone will love.
