A week ago, I got to visit my Aunt Brenda. She kindly gave me pecans that she has picked up from the pecan trees in her yard. She even already had them cracked for me! I love candy pecans, but honestly I didn't want to heat the oven to make them. So, I decided to try a stove top version. They turned out great!!!
1/2 cup sugar
2 cups pecans
dash of salt
cinnamon to taste
Add sugar and pecans for pan. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until sugar is melted. Add salt and cinnamon and turn out onto a cookie sheet. Let cool, then enjoy!
