Pecan Nougat - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 c. ground pecans
1/2 c. sugar
1 1/2 tsp. vanilla
1/2 tsp. salt
1 egg white

Preparation

Mix ingredients.
Add just enough unbeaten egg white to hold mixture together when pressed lightly with hand.
A teaspoon of mixture will make a nice-sized nougat.
The trick lies in the proper handling of the material.
Lightly mold into a roundish pat and bake until golden brown in a very slow oven.
Allow nougats to get cold before removing from baking sheets.
Delicious.
