Sugared Bourbon Pecans
PREP TIME: 30 Minutes
MAKES: 2 cups

INGREDIENTS:

  • 2 cups pecans, halved
  • 1 cup white sugar
  • 1/4 tsp nutmeg
  • 1/4 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/3 cup bourbon
  • 1/3 cup water

METHOD:
Combine all ingredients except pecans and bring to soft, ball stage (238-240 degrees F), stirring constantly. Stir in pecan halves and mix thoroughly. Spoon out on buttered wax paper, aluminum foil or parchment paper to cool. (When using wax paper, be sure to buffer with newspaper underneath as hot wax will transfer to whatever is beneath.)
