Simple Candied Pecans image

Great candied pecans to put out during the holidays. Got this recipe from my mom. Not sure where it came from originally. I really like that this recipe doesn't call for any margarine or butter. It's bad enough that I'll sit down and eat handfuls of these...the least I could do is skip the butter too. :)
