Homemade treats are always a welcome gift during the holidays. My grandmother’s recipe for Candied Walnuts is one I’ve shared with family and friends for years.
Tonight, Lock & Lock is going to make sharing for the holidays a little easier with a set of 6 bowls and 6 adorable holiday gift bags.
Here’s the recipe for my grandma’s candied walnuts. Feel free to make them and share in your Lock & Lock too! Your friends and family will thank you! : )
Ingredients:
- 1 cup brown sugar firmly packed
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 4 cups shelled walnuts
Directions:
- Cover 10" x 15" baking sheet with wax paper
- In a two-quart saucepan, stir in sugar and sour cream. Cook at medium-high until sugar is dissolved and comes to a boil. Sugar should be cooked to soft-ball stage (235-240 degrees).
- Remove from heat. Quickly stir in vanilla extract and walnuts and mix well.
- Spoon the mixture out onto waxed paper, and separate nuts (use a fork).
- Let cool (2-3 hours is best).
- Once cool, remove nuts from wax paper and enjoy.
