RENO, Nev. (KOLO) – Laura Dong calls herself “the cookie alchemist” which is also the name of her home-baking business. There’s not a cookie design she can’t do and her decorating skills are incredible!
She stopped by Morning Break to teach folks a fun and easy snack recipe that will be a hit at any holiday party, especially when you’re feeling “cookied-out.”
Watch Friday’s demonstration to learn how to make candied pecans and cashews.
Couple of changes to note on the recipe:
- After egg yolk and vanilla are mixed and frothy, add the nuts to the mix and coat them well.
- Then add cinnamon, cayenne (optional) and salt. Mix thoroughly again.
- Bake for 20 minutes at 300°; take out and mix again with a spatula before baking for another 20 minutes.
