Glazed Pecans - Janet Gibson

• 1 cup sugar
• 1/4 tsp cream of tartar
• 1/2 tsp cinnamon
• 1/4 cup water
• 1/2 tsp vanilla
• 2 cup pecans (whole)

mix sugar, cream of tartar, and cinnamon. add water. cook in saucepan til soft ball stage. (235-240 degrees) get to that temperature slowly. too fast may push you over 240 and you will ruin glaze.
remove from heat and add vanilla, then pecans. Stir syrup until syrup starts to sugar. pour out onto large piece of wax paper.
butter hands and separate nut halves to cool.
