Rosemary Spiced Nuts image

These lightly-spiced cocktail nuts are a cut above the store bought sort. Cayenne adds kick, brown sugar balances the salt and fresh rosemary provides an unexpected woodsy note that really makes them something special. They're fancy enough to toss into a shiny cellophane bag, tie with a bow and give as a gift.
