Recipe Introduction
This is a recipe that I wrote down from some unknown source and it�s been in my �to try� file forever. I�m glad I finally tried it. These are so delicious and easy! Everything just goes into one pot and cooks! You will think that it isn�t going to come together, but persevere and it will! You may need to cook and stir for more like 9 minutes, but watch that you don�t burn the sugar or the nuts. I tried adding a tablespoon of hot sauce to one batch with the vanilla and that was good, too!
List of Ingredients
1/4 c. butter
2 1/2 c. whole unblanched almonds
1 c. sugar
1 t. vanilla
1 t. salt + coarse salt for sprinkling
Recipe
In a very heavy saucepan (about 4-5 quart), melt butter over medium-high heat [#7 on my stove]. Add the sugar and stir for a few seconds. Add the almonds. Cook and stir constantly 7-8 minutes, or until the syrup is golden brown. Removed from heat. Stir in vanilla. Immediately drop by clusters on a greased baking sheet [I used Release foil � the best]. Cool. Store airtight.
