Easy Candied Almonds Recipe

Sweet and crunchy glazed almonds are the perfect snack to accompany a good movie on a rainy fall evening!

THE RECIPE

INGREDIENTS

• 2/3 cups sugar
• 1/4 cup water
• 1/4 teaspoon vanilla powder
• 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1 teaspoon unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1 1/4 cups whole almonds

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Line a baking tray with parchment paper.
2. To a large pot add the sugar, water, vanilla, cinnamon and cocoa powder. Bring to a boil.
3. Add the almonds to the pot and reduce the heat to medium. Reduce the liquid until the sugar is dry while stirring constantly.
4. Keep stirring until the sugar liquifies again and covers the almonds with a shiny glaze (this will take up to 15 minutes).
5. Spread the almonds on the lined baking tray and let cool completely.
