My niece made these Sweet Roasted Nuts for us last year and of course we all loved them and wanted the recipe. Well, she basically said she did not have a recipe but told me how to make them.
The cast of characters
1 bag of pecan halves (or 1 1/2 cups)1 bag of walnuts (or 1 1/2 cups)
Melt 1/2 stick of butter, 1/4 cup of brown sugar, a pinch of salt and a little vanilla in a sauce pan.
Coat the nuts in the mixture and then spread on a baking sheet. Bake at 350 degrees for about 10 minutes. You will know when they are done when you smell them!
Cool on wax paper before storing
I found these little canning jars at Target, and they are the perfect size for gift giving.
I hope you enjoy making these little morsels. They are so delicious to eat and you could make someone very happy :-)

Right up my alley for gift-giving...and you've packaged them so sweetly! XOXO
Yum! Now I need a snack! LOL Love how you packaged them.
What a great idea for little gifts for the neighbours :)
1/2 stick of butter...is that. 1/4 cup? I think a "stick" in the US is 1/2 cup?
No, wait. In Canada butter comes in a 1pound block. So a stick is 1/4 of a pound...and a pound is 2 cups so a stick would be 1/2 cup. ! Right?

Oh no...how many of those do you think would make it into a jar to be given away? Poor folks receiving the crumbs...feel so sorry for them.
