How To Make Candied Pecans

Let’s get started with candied pecans recipe. Add some sugar and cinnamon into the pan with the pecans over medium low heat.

Add some water to bring everything together.

A pinch of salt.

Let bubble and boil for a good 5 minutes. Transfer to parchment paper to dry and set up.

These Ghirardelli melting wafers are amazing. So easy to get melted chocolate…in a hurry. I’ve been using them for the last couple of years. I find them in the baking isle of my grocery store.

Ready for dipping!

You’ll also need some Oreo Cookies and crushed candy cane pieces for baking. These are great, they don’t melt and they hold their crunch perfectly. Found my bag at World Market.

Chocolate Covered Oreos

Dip each cookie into the melted chocolate. I left 1/3 not dipped, but you can dip the whole cookie if you prefer.

While the chocolate is still melted press pecans on cookie and sprinkle with candy cane pieces. Let set up for about 15 minutes.

So much fun! They look great wrapped up in a cellophane bag for gift giving. Enjoy!
