Orange Sugared Walnuts
Ingredients
1 1/2 cups sugar
1/4 cup water
3 Tbsp. orange juice
1/2 tsp. orange flavoring
2 cups walnut meats
Directions
Combine sugar, water, and orange juice. Cool slowly, stirring until mixture boils. Boil slowly, without stirring, until a semi-firm ball will form when dropped into cold water or it reaches 250 degrees F on a candy thermometer. Remove from heat; add orange flavoring and nut meats. Stir until syrup begins to look cloudy. Drop by teaspoon on waxed paper. You can use other nuts for this.

Thanks for the recipe. My grandmother used to make this treat for us and I had forgotten how to make it.
