Baked Sherry Spiced Nuts - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 egg white, lightly beaten
    1/2 cup granulated sugar
    2 tablespoons real sherry wine or 2 tablespoons apple juice (the kind you can drink, NOT cooking sherry!)
    1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
    1/2 teaspoon ground allspice
    1/8 teaspoon ground red cayenne pepper (optional)
    2 cups whole mixed unsalted shelled nuts (such as hazelnuts, pecans, cashews, and almonds)
Preparation
    Mix together egg white, sugar, sherry, and the threee seasonings into a mixing bowl.
    Add nuts and stir to coat.
    Spread in a 9x13\" baking pan that has been lined with foil and sprayed lightly with nonstick cooking spray.
    Bake 25 minutes at 325 F, stirring occasionally (at least 3 times), so they don't burn.
    Remove from oven and let cool; once cool break apart any large clumps.
    Store in an airtight container at room temperature up to one week.
