Ingredients
16 servings
- •1 pound walnut halves
- •1 cup white sugar
- •6 tablespoons milk
- •2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- •0.25 teaspoon salt
- •1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Place walnuts onto a baking sheet and spread in a single layer.
- Roast in the preheated oven until nuts are fragrant and begin to turn brown, 8 to 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, stir sugar, milk, cinnamon, and salt together in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat; attach a candy thermometer to the saucepan and bring mixture to a boil. Cook, without stirring, until mixture reaches 240 degrees F (115 degrees C), about 8 minutes. A small amount of syrup dropped into cold water should form a soft ball that flattens when removed from the water and placed onto a flat surface. Remove from the heat and immediately stir in vanilla.
- Stir nuts into the pan until well coated. Spoon nuts onto waxed paper and use a fork to remove any clumps. Cool to room temperature.
