adapted from Gourmet, Nov. 2005
List of Ingredients
1 Tbs. butter plus additional for greasing parchment
¼ cup sugar
2 Tbs. light corn syrup
½ tsp. cinnamon
¼ tsp. freshly ground nutmeg
2 c. mixed nuts
Recipe
Put oven rack in middle position and preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and lightly butter parchment.
Stir together butter, sugar, corn syrup and spices in a 2-qt. heavy saucepan and bring to boil over high heat. Add nuts and cook, stirring constantly, 3 minutes. Spread nuts in 1 layer on lined baking sheet, separating any clumps. Bake, stirring nuts once with a silicone spatula halfway through baking (keep nuts in 1 layer), until golden brown and bubbling, 12 to 15 minutes. Cool on baking sheet on a rack 45 minutes, then break into small clusters with your hands.
