Honey Roasted Pecans

1/4 cup honey
1/4 cup butter or margarine
1 tsp. ground cinnamon (divided)
4 cups nuts
2 to 3 Tbsp. superfine sugar

Line cookie sheet with foil; grease foil.  In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine honey, butter, and 1/2 tsp. cinnamon; bring to boil. Cook 2 minutes, stirring constantly.  Measure nuts into a medium bowl.  Pour honey mixture over nuts; stir until evenly coated.  Spread on prepared pan.  Preheat oven to 325 degrees.  Bake nuts 10 to 15 minutes or until they are glazed and lightly browned.  Do not allow nuts to burn.  Cool in pan 20 to 30 minutes.  Remove from foil.  In medium bowl, combine sugar and remaining cinnamon; toss with glazed nuts to coat.  Makes 4 cups.

 Try adding 1/8 to 1/4 tsp. Cayenne pepper to honey mixture for an interesting change.  They won't be hot, just spicy.
