Great recipeDecember 23, 2008By lowensdallas
"I made these pecans for CHRISTmas gifts. When I started I made a large batch. They did not turn out very well. They tasted great however they looked terrible. I then made them one batch at a time and they turned out great. I would recommend that you don't try to double or triple etc the recipe. They are easy to make however take a lot of time to cook especially when you are making large amounts."
