Here is something I like to make for the holidays...
Toasted pecan halves.
1/2 cube butter melted in a frying pan.
2 cups pecan halves
3 packets Splenda
1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
Ground cinnamon-Quantity depends on your desire for flavor.
Here is what I do...
Melt butter in a medium fry pan. Add pecans and cook on high heat but be careful not to burn (as it can easily.)
Cook until you start to smell the nuts brown stirring pretty constantly. Turn off fire and add the Splenda, mix well then add the vanilla extract. This will sizzle due to the alcohol then add the amount of cinnamon you desire. (I do it somewhat heavily)
Important to remove nuts to a bowl and cool completely before eating.
These nuts are great if you grind them for a pumpkin pie crust, or a topping on your fake sweet potatoes too.
