Ingredients

1/2 Tbsp butter

2 Tbsp brown sugar

1 pinch salt

1/2 cup walnuts

Directions

Add the butter, brown sugar, and a pinch of salt to a small non-stick skillet. Heat over medium until the butter is melted and the brown sugar is just beginning to sizzle around the edges . Add the walnuts and stir to coat in the brown sugar mixture. Continue to cook and stir over medium heat for 2-4 minutes, or until the brown sugar is fully melted and coating the walnuts . Remove the skillet from the heat immediately, as the sugar can go from melted to burning quickly. Spread the candied nuts out over a sheet of parchment paper, making sure they are in a flat layer and separated as much as possible. Allow the nuts to cool fully . The candy coating will fully harden as they cool.
