Lori's Sugared Pecans
This is the best recipe for the Sugared Pecans I have ever tasted. Our friend Lori gave this recipe to us and I treasure it. These pecans always taste much better than everyone else's offerings. I make a bunch every Christmas and put some in every Christmas plate I give as gifts.

Instructions
Step 1
Pre-Heat oven @ 200 – 225 degrees. Need one cookie sheet (aprox. 10“x14”) w/ sides. Have all ingredients measured and ready; and pour dry ingredients (stated below) in gallon sized zip-lock bag.
Step 2
In mixer, first beat butter until whipped. Add egg white and whip together [at high speed] ‘til foamy. Remove bowl from mixer / do not use the mixer from now on.
Step 3
Pour nuts into mixer bowl w/ egg-butter mixture with a spoon or rubber spatula, stir nuts well so all get covered/coated w/ foamy egg white mixture
Step 4
In Zip-Lock gallon baggie, add above 3 dry ingredients. Close baggie and shake well to mix ingredients well. Have this already before starting Butter-Egg White mixture.
Step 5
Pour butter-egg coated NUTS into zip-lock baggie. Shake well so all nuts are sugar covered. Do this for a quick short period of time… bec/ you do not want to shake sugar off some of the nuts.
Step 6
Empty baggie of coated nuts onto an ungreased cookie sheet. Gently spread so have a somewhat even thickness.
Step 7
Place on middle rack in oven Bake at 200 – 225 degrees for 45 – 60 min. You may want to stir nuts once half way thru the baking period.
Step 8
Cool sugared nuts on wire rack covered w/ wax paper. Then put nuts into a covered bowl/tin until ready to serve or package as gifts
