    Title: Bourbon Pecans
    Categories: Kids, Candies
    Yield: 1 Batch

    1 lb Pecan halves
    3 oz Bourbon; reduced to 3 tb
    1/2 c Sugar
    1/2 ts Angostura bitters
    1 tb Worcestershire sauce
    1 tb Corn oil
    1/2 ts Cayenne pepper
    1/2 ts Salt
    1/4 ts Pepper
    1 ts Ground cumin

    Preheat oven to 325?F. Blanch the pecans for one minute in boiling
    water. Drain. Combine the reduced bourbon, sugar, Angostura
    bitters, Worcestershire sauce, and corn oil. Turn the still hot
    nuts in a bowl and toss with the bourbon mixture. Let stand
    10 minutes and then spread on a rimmed sheet tray. Bake for 30 to
    50 minutes, stirring every 10 minutes. When nuts are crisp and
    lightly brown and the liquid has evaporated, turn the nuts into a
    bowl. Combine the cayenne, salt, pepper, and cumin. Sprinkle over
    the nuts while tossing. Turn out onto a sheet pan to cool in a
    single layer. Store in an airtight container.
