Thing Number 24: Candied Pecans
Thing number 24 is candied pecans. I made these so that my husband could have them for a beet & goat cheese salad at work - but it yielded a ton of them!
Here's how they are made:Ingredients
- 2 cups Chopped Pecans
- 3/4 cup Fat Free Sour Cream
- 1/4 cup + 2 tbsp Confectioners' Sugar
- 1/4 cup + 2 tbsp Dark Brown Sugar
Directions
- Preheat oven to 250 degrees
- Combine Sour cream and both sugars in small saucepan.
- Bring to simmer over medium heat, stirring constantly to avoid sticking to pan.
- When it begins to bubble, remove from heat and add pecans. Stir until all covered.
- Spread out on large cookie sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Place in 250 degree oven for about 45-50 minutes to begin drying process.
- Allow to sit out over night. Break apart and eat.
