SUGARED PECANS


1 lb pecan halves
3 egg whites
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup butter
Dash of salt
Directions


Toast pecans by spreading in one layer on a cookie sheet and baking at 325 degrees until light brown (about ten minutes).

Beat egg whites until frothy. Add sugar and beat until stiff. Fold in nuts.

Melt butter in 10x15 inch jelly roll pan/cookie sheet. Spread nut mixture over butter and bake at 325 for 30 minutes. Watch them carefully as they're easy to burn.

Stir carefully every 10 minutes until light brown (most of the pecans will really have a slightly grayish color).

Keep in a closed container or tin.
