Ingredients:

  • 1/4 cup orange juice
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 2 cups pecan halves

Directions:

  1. Butter a large cookie sheet (one that has sides).
  2. Using a 2 quart glass baking dish, pour orange juice into sugar, and mix well. Stir in pecans. Cover with plastic wrap, but leave a corner open to vent.
  3. Microwave on medium for 6 minutes. Stir and continue to cook on medium for about 4 - 6 more minutes until the syrup crystallizes (check after 4 minutes, and then each minute thereafter).
  4. As soon as it's crystallized, spread glazed nuts on the buttered cookie sheet evenly, separating the nuts. Let it cool completely.
