- Add pecans & let soak 10 minutes before draining & discarding the water.
- In a large bowl, stir together the 1/4 cup of sugar, cocoa, chili powder & cayenne pepper.

- Bake 10 to 15 minutes or until pecans start to glisten & appear dry, stirring several times while baking.
- Remove from the oven & let the baking sheet cool completely on a wire rack.
- Store nuts in a tightly covered container, placed in a cool, dry spot.
