Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- Spread the nuts out evenly over a small baking sheet. Bake for 5 minutes, or until nuts are fragrant and toasted.
- Remove the nuts from the oven and spread them out evenly across the bottom of a 10-inch non-stick skillet. Sprinkle the sugar evenly over the nuts. Cut the butter into 6 little pieces and scatter them over the top. Turn the heat under the skillet to MEDIUM-LOW. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the butter has completely melted and sugar is almost completely dissolved. Add water. Increase heat to MEDIUM and cook, stirring constantly, for two to three minutes, shaking the pan occasionally, until the water cooks completely off, the sugar has completely dissolved, and the buttery sugar mixture is mostly sticking to the nuts. Pour the nuts out on to a sheet of wax paper or foil. Use a wooden spoon to separate them a little so they don't all stick together as they cool.
- Allow the glazed nuts to cool completely before serving.

HONEY GLAZED MACADAMIA NUTS
I used Gale Gand's recipe from "Sweet Dreams" episode Sweets By Mail at Foodnetwork. I have tweaked it, to suit our needs for a particular occasion. We served these at a wedding reception that we had for a couple of staff members who never had a ceremony, they only went to the courthouse. This happened about 5 years ago but I forgot about these little tidbits! Used these with my Cranberry-Chutney Brie Appetizers and they turned out great!

Steps:
- Place granulated sugar and macadamia nuts in a 4-quart saucepan. Cook over medium-high heat, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon, until the sugar melts and begins to recrystallize and the nuts become white and coated with sugar, about 12 minutes. Transfer the nuts to a baking sheet, and set aside until cool enough to handle. Separate the nuts, and let cool completely.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. In a medium bowl, melt the chocolate in the top of a double boiler or a heatproof bowl set over a pan of simmering water. Using a fork, dip the sugared nuts in the melted chocolate, coating completely. Place on a lined baking sheet. Refrigerate until chocolate has set.
- Coat nuts a second time, as in step 2, with chocolate. Refrigerate until set.
- Sift confectioners' sugar over a baking pan. Roll nuts in sugar. Transfer the sugar and the nuts to an airtight container, and store in a cool, dry place up to 1 week.
Tips:
- Use fresh macadamia nuts for the best flavor and texture.
- If you don't have a candy thermometer, you can test the glaze by dropping a small amount into a bowl of cold water. If the glaze forms a soft ball, it is ready.
- Be careful not to overcook the glaze, or it will become too hard.
- Spread the glazed macadamia nuts out on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet in a single layer to ensure even baking.
- Let the glazed macadamia nuts cool completely before storing them in an airtight container. This will help them stay crispy.
Conclusion:
Glazed macadamia nuts are a delicious and easy-to-make snack or party appetizer. They are also a great gift for friends and family. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a sweet and crunchy treat that everyone will love. So next time you're looking for a tasty snack, give glazed macadamia nuts a try.
