This simple and flavorful mix includes a fiery kick of cayenne pepper. It's a perfect snack for entertaining or to nosh on while simply lounging - I got this recipe from our local newspaper. Ingredients:
2 tablespoons butter |
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper |
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon |
2 cups walnut halves |
2 tablespoons granulated sugar |
1 tablespoon cocoa powder |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 250°F. 2. In a large microwaveable bowl, place butter, cayenne pepper, and cinnamon. Microwave on high until butter is melted, about 30 seconds. 3. Whisk ingredients together to combine. Add walnuts and stir to coat. Sprinkle with sugar and toss to coat walnuts. 4. Pour mixture onto a rimmed baking sheet. Bake in center of oven for about 1 hour stirring about every 15 minutes, until walnuts are a deep golden color and toasted. 5. Sift cocoa over warm walnuts. Let cool. 6. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days. |
