Time 15m

Yield 2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 cups pecan halves, lightly toasted
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
1/4 teaspoon ground allspice
2 tablespoons dark rum
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 teaspoon brown sugar
1 teaspoon unsalted butter

Steps:

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
To make the spice mix, place the spices in a small bowl and mix to combine.
To make the glaze, place the glaze ingredients in a medium-size saucepan and bring to a boil over medium heat.
Add the pecans to the saucepan and cook until they are well coated and the pan is almost dry, about 1 minute. Spoon the spice mix over the nuts, 1 tablespoon at a time, until they are well coated.
Transfer the pecans to the prepared sheet, separate with your hands or a fork, and let sit until completely dried, at least 1 hour and up to overnight.
