Swedish Nuts II image

I make these wonderful sweet nuts using pecans every year for Christmas. They are a true delight, especially if you are a lover of nuts. If pecans aren't your forte, substitute walnuts. Happy Holidays!

I had some trouble getting the cookies to hold their shape. They spread out a lot in the oven.
