My nephew Dan taught me this recipe, simple and so very tasty! He is a missionary serving in Taiwan and I am very proud of him and his wife and kids. They are also helping with the efforts in restoring the Philippians'. I am very proud of them.

How To Make orange glazed pecans

  • 1
    In a small Teflon coated frying pan, heat water and bring to a low boil.
  • 2
    add 1/2 package of orange jello stir until it makes a simple syrup maybe 1-2 minutes.
  • 3
    add the pecan and coat, immediately remove from heat, you must work very quickly!
  • 4
    Have an already prepared plate lined with foil or parchment paper and spread the pecan mixture on this paper. Allow to cool and break up into bit size pieces.
  • 5
    Repeat the procedure for another pan with the remaining 1/2 package orange jello and water. Clean pan immediately after use as it could harden and do damage to your pan.

    Dan said that you can use different flavors of jello for this candy nut treat. My favorite is the orange, once you try it. You be the judge. Store remainder in airtight containers, if they last this long! Enjoy!
