Kristi's Sugared Pecans image

This recipe was given to me by a dear friend, Kristi Olivieri. She brought me in a bag of these to the office one day during the Holiday time. I shared them with the girls at the office and brought the rest home to my husband who absolutely loved them. Kristi says: "Great paired with a glass of wine. Also great for gift giving." Happy Holidays everyone!
