Make a bag of these easy candied almonds for your favorite people this holiday season and watch them oooohh and ahhhhh over it! There is something about adding homemade goods to your gift guide. That personal touch beats any store-bought goods especially if it is this delicious.

WHAT NUTS TO USE

These treats can be made with most nuts. So think, cashews, peanuts, walnuts , pecans, you name it.

We roasted some peanuts and made these favorite from Cameroon.

You can roast your nuts or use store bought nuts . This is also a way to revive all those back of the pantry nuts you abandoned a long time ago.
