Sugared Walnuts - cooking recipe

Ingredients

2 c. shelled walnuts
1 c. firmly packed brown sugar

Combine the sugars and sour cream in a saucepan.
Cook over medium heat until sugar is dissolved, stirring constantly. Continue cooking this mixture without stirring until it reaches 238\u00b0 on a candy thermometer.
Remove from heat.
Add vanilla and nuts.
Stir until nuts are thickly covered and the coating loses its gloss.
(Don't give up, this takes a while!)
Spoon nuts onto wax paper and separate nuts with forks.
