Candied Pecans
Is it just me or did this year fly by?
I mean, 2015 will be over in just a few short weeks!
But before we can celebrate the new year, we need to gift our friends and neighbors these delicious candied pecans!
Who doesn’t love a sweet, nutty, candied nut? And as a gift? The best 🙂
I’ve made several batches of these pecans and they are always gone in the blink of an eye! Seriously, they’re that good.
And the good news is, they’re really simple and easy to make.
