Wow is this a very easy recipe and makes some great candy!!! I made 1/4 of the recipe, as I am making so many goodies for the holidays, but might have to make another batch, lol!! I used roasted/salted almonds in place of the pecans, as I am the only one in the family that like pecans. I like white chocolate, but not as well as milk chocolate and was surprised by how well I like it. I did use a 4 oz. bar of Ghiradelli's white chocolate which worked out wonderfully. Thanks for sharing the recipe Nancy. Made for "Sweet December" event. -
This turned out beautifully! I reduced the recipe by half, and shared with some friends over the holidays. I do think that next time, I'll toast the pecans with a smidge of butter and a sprinkling of salt, but that is probably a personal preference, as I love sweet and salty! Thanks so much for sharing, Nancy's Pantry! -
Very easy and delicious! I tripled the batch because I was sharing with friends and neighbors. And of course, I had to make sure there was some left for us to enjoy at home! Loved the toasted pecans....really added a lot to the flavor. Thanks for sharing! Made for Sweet December game on yuku.com
