1 cup sugar
2 tablespoons butter
1 cup chopped pecans

Cover a baking sheet with aluminum foil. Brush the foil lightly with melted butter.

In a heavy pan with cover, melt butter over low heat. Add sugar, cook over medium-high heat stirring continuously until sugar melts and turns golden brown. Add pecans; stir until pecans are well-coated with glaze. Quickly spread mixture evenly over prepared baking sheet (candy hardens very fast!). Cool completely. Break into bite-sized pieces.

Yield: 2 cups

Cooks Tip: When melting candy coatings, keep all utensils and ingredients dry. Moisture can cause coating to thicken.
