Frosted Pecans(Great For Nibbling) - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1/2 c. butter
2 egg whites, room temperature
1 c. light brown sugar
1 lb. large pecans

Preparation

Melt butter in 9 x 13-inch pan in oven.
Set aside.
Beat egg whites very stiff.
Gradually add sugar until mixture is thick and smooth.
Take time doing this, so meringue has body.
Fold in pecans until they are thoroughly coated.
Drop mixture by spoonfuls into pan with melted butter.
Bake 1 hour at 300\u00b0.
Every 10 minutes, gently turn and separate the nuts, using a small spatula so they are brown and evenly covered with butter.
Cool in pan.
