baked cocoa-covered nuts

Recipe by
Jean Ray

Adapted from Low Carbing Among Friends on FB, made with a sugar substitute. I don't do artificial sugar, so if you use honey or sugar, it's not low carb. Always looking for something else to do with nuts when the cookie craving gets bad. Cayenne is a nice addition.
