Spicy Pecans
 
 
1/2 cup sugar
3 Tbsp water
pinch. salt
1/2 tsp. cayenne (I use a little more)
2 cups pecans
 
Preheat oven to 350.   Combine first 4 ingredients and stir until sugar dissolves.  Boil 2 minutes, remove from fire and addpecans; stir until well coated.  Usingslotted spoon, put pecans on oiled baking sheet.
 
Bake about 12 minutesand transfer to waxed paper – break apart when cooled


Spicy Pretzel Sticks


I used the same recipe but reduced the oven to 275 - I drained the pretzel sticks with tongs and put them on parchment paper (easier to remove plus cleanup).  I baked them approximately 10 minutes (I tested one first).  These were delicious and not expensive to make - would make a nice hostess gift.   (I used Glutino pretzel sticks and a little less  than 1/2 tsp cayenne)  If you don't want it too spicy, reduce cayenne.
