Baked Candied Pecans
Short and sweet… and certainly addictive! With my family being from Georgia, I grew up on pecans. I can remember sitting in my grandmother’s living room after family holidays with a nut sheller for hours. That was the deal. She would give us a couple boxes (yes… boxes.) of perfect Georgia pecans if we…
