1/2 c. packed brown sugar
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. cinnamon
1/4 tsp. allspice
1/8 tsp. each, nutmeg, and cloves
1 1/2 c. walnuts ( I mix in pecans, hazel nuts, black walnuts, butternuts)

Combine all ingredients except nuts with 1 1/2 tablespoon water in a 2 quart glass bowl. Microwave on High for 3 minutes, stir occasionally. Stir in walnuts until well coated. Microwave on High 5 minutes, or until syrup hardens slightly. Spoon onto waxed paper to coat.

NOTE: Microwaves vary in powder so watch carefully.
