When we were newlyweds, our first Christmas was pretty lean. I usually make presents, but that year I had no idea what I could afford to put together. A good friend gave me a special giftthis recipe and a sack of ingredients. I think of her every time I stir up this mix. Patti Holland, Parker, Colorado Ingredients:
3 egg whites |
2 teaspoons water |
2 cans (12 ounces each) salted peanuts |
1 cup whole blanched almonds |
1 cup walnut halves |
1-3/4 cups sugar |
3 tablespoons pumpkin pie spice |
3/4 teaspoon salt |
1 cup raisins |
Directions:
1. In a bowl, beat egg whites and water until frothy. Add nuts; stir gently to coat. Combine sugar, pie spice and salt; add to nut mixture and stir gently to coat. Fold in raisins. Spread into two greased 15-in. x 10-in. x 1-in. baking pans.
2. Bake, uncovered, at 300° for 20-25 minutes or until lightly browned, stirring every 10 minutes. Cool. Store in an airtight container. Yield: about 10 cups.
