This recipe is a great way to use up leftover egg whites. I always have a few egg whites left over from making other recipes, and this is a great way to use them up.

The pecan brittle was a little too hard for my liking. I think I should have cooked it for a shorter amount of time.

I'm not a big fan of pecans, so I used walnuts instead. The brittle still turned out great.

This recipe is a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll reduce the amount of sugar next time.

I was a little skeptical about making pecan brittle in the microwave, but it actually worked really well. The brittle was cooked evenly and it didn't burn.

I followed the recipe exactly and my pecan brittle turned out too hard. I think I should have cooked it for a shorter amount of time.
