Ingredients
Lightly sweetened with an addictive crispiness, these are almost impossible to stop eating! Us
5 cups mixed nuts
4 ounces unsalted butter
teaspoon salt
1 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Preparation
1
Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Spread the nuts on a jelly roll pan and toast in the oven for about 12 minutes. Let cool and set aside in a large mixing bowl. Leave oven on. Place the butter on a jelly roll pan and place in the oven just to melt the butter. In the small bowl of an electric mixer, beat the egg whites and salt on high speed until there are soft peaks. Reduce the speed and gradually add the sugar, about 1 tablespoon at a time, beating briefly between additions. Then beat on high speed until stiff. Add the vanilla and bit a little longer. A
