Betty's Brown Sugar Caramelized Pecans

In this video, Betty demonstrates how to make Brown Sugar Caramelized Pecans. They are tremendously easy to make; just add some butter and brown sugar to pecans and heat for a very small time, and you have tasty caramelized pecans!

Ingredients (for ½ cup caramelized pecans):

1 tablespoon butter
½ pecan halves
1 tablespoon brown sugar

In a small skillet, melt 1 tablespoon butter over low heat. Add ½ cup pecan halves and 1 tablespoon brown sugar. Cook, stirring constantly over low heat 2 to 3 minutes, or until brown sugar dissolves and coats pecans. Cool pecans on a pan lined with waxed paper. These Brown Sugar Caramelized Pecans may be used to top a cake frosting, to decorate a sundae, or as an ingredient in a green salad. They are YUMMY! --Betty 

YUM! my sister and i made this on a salad with spinach, cranberries, mandarin oranges, goat cheese, and the candied pecans. (we used a fig balsamic vinegar dressing, and honey on the pecans rather than brown sugar). i love how your videos are showing me more variations of the same!

@jimmyho315 Your salad sounds terrific--love the fig balsamic vinegar dressing, also! Thanks for the great comment!

Thanks a bunch. I was making Watergate Salad today for Thanksgiving, and wasn't sure how to prepare them. This video guide definitely helped. :)

My Grandma used to make these around Christmas time..but she carried on like she had slaved over the stove all day lol.

Rick looks like he's having too much fun on the mower btw.. That is the greenest grass I have seen in forever. I'm stationed in San Diego it's all dry here from the fires and drought.
