    List of Ingredients




    2 cups (8 ounces) pecan halves
    2 tablespoons granulated sugar
    3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
    1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
    1/8 teaspoon ground cloves
    1/8 teaspoon ground allspice
    1 tablespoon rum, preferably dark
    2 teaspoons vanilla extract
    1 teaspoon light or dark brown sugar
    1 tablespoon unsalted butter

    Recipe



    Line a rimmed cookie sheet with parchment paper and spread pecans in an even layer. Bake for 4 minutes, rotate pan and continue to bake until fragrant and color deepens slightly, about 4 more minutes. Transfer cookie sheet to wire rack.

    Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, combine sugar, salt, cinnamon, cloves and allspice and set aside. In a medium saucepan, bring rum, vanilla, brown sugar and butter to a boil, whisking constantly.

    Stir in toasted pecans and cook, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon, until nuts are shiny and almost all the liquid has evaporated, 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer glazed pecans to bowl with spice mix and toss well to coat. Return pecans to parchment-lined sheet to cool.
