Ingredients
- 1 lb pecan halves
- 3 egg whites
- 1 cup sugar
- 1/2 cup butter
- Dash of salt
Directions
Step 1
Toast pecans by spreading in one layer on a cookie sheet and baking at 325 degrees until light brown (about ten minutes).
Step 2
Beat egg whites until frothy. Add sugar and beat until stiff. Fold in nuts.
Step 3
Melt butter in 10x15 inch jelly roll pan/cookie sheet. Spread nut mixture over butter and bake at 325 for 30 minutes. Watch them carefully as they're easy to burn.
Step 4
Stir carefully every 10 minutes until light brown (most of the pecans will really have a slightly grayish color).
