Well since the other thread got locked, I thought we start the weekend on a good vibe:
take 1/2 cup of pecans/walnuts
dump them in the oven on a tray at 250F
(or cast iron pan at medium)
DON"T burn them! check on them regularly
extract from oven/top
let cool
2 cups of sugar/brown sugar
pinch of salt (coarse-ier, the better)
1-2 sticks of butter
1 cup powdered milk
2 spoons of cocoa powder
about 1-1.5 cup of water.
rum
vanilla
bring to a boil (more like small simmer) the water,
add sugar, salt, cocoa powder, rum, vanilla,
add powdered milk
mix gently on low until no more clumps
simmer until maple-syrup-in-the-fridge
pull from top
mix the nuts in
place some wax paper on a pan
grease
pour the delicious yummy smelling mix
level with wooden spoon
(now the hard part) wait to cool
cut into desired forms
enjoy
It will be the consistency of fudge
Have a nice weekend!
P.S.So BITOGers, what would be your touch to this nutty recipe?
Peanut butter?
other nuts?
dried fruits?
caramel?
