     Title: Candied Pecans
Categories: Nuts, Herbs
     Yield: 1 Pound

 2 3/4 c  Pecan halves
     2 tb Butter; softened, divided
     1 c  Sugar
   1/2 c  Water
   1/2 ts Salt
   1/2 ts Ground cinnamon
     1 ts Vanilla extract

 Place pecans in a shallow baking pan in a 250°F/121°C
 oven for 10 minutes or until warmed. Grease a 15x10x1" baking pan
 with 1 tb butter; set aside.

 Grease the sides of a large heavy saucepan with remaining 1 tb
 butter; add sugar, water, salt, and cinnamon. Bring to a boil,
 stirring constantly to dissolve sugar. Cover; cook 2 minutes to
 dissolve any sugar crystals that may form on the sides of pan.

 Cook, without stirring, until a candy thermometer reads 236°F
 (soft-ball stage). Remove from the heat; add vanilla. Stir in warm
 pecans until evenly coated.

 Spread onto prepared baking pan. Bake for 30 minutes, stirring
 every 10 minutes. Spread on a waxed paper-lined baking sheet to
 cool.
