Killer Pecans

Whew boy!  It's almost Christmas my peeps!  How is everybody holding up?  Do you need an easy snack/appetizer/dessert to take to a party?  Maybe you still need a teacher or mail man gift (do people still give gifts to their mail man?)  Whatever you need, I have it for you today!  These spicy, sweet, salty little treats will please anyone and I promise you don't have to like curry to like these!  Make them and see for yourself! 

Killer Pecans (source unknown)


1 lb. pecan halves
1 egg white
1 t. water
3/4 c. white sugar
2 T. curry powder
1 T. salt

Preheat the oven to 250.  Arrange the pecans on a jelly roll pan and toast for 10 minutes.  Meanwhile, whisk the egg white and water in a large bowl until frothy.  Stir in the toasted pecans and sprinkle with sugar, curry powder and salt.  Mix well.

Lightly coat the cookie sheet with cooking spray.  Spread the pecans in a single layer on the sheet and bake for 1 hour, stirring twice.  Store in an airtight container for up to 1 month.
