    Makes 1 1/2 cups

Ingredients

Nonstick vegetable oil spray
1/2 cup sugar

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Preheat oven to 325°F. Line heavy rimmed baking sheet with foil. Spray foil with nonstick spray. Combine sugar and vinegar in small saucepan. Stir over medium heat until sugar dissolves, about 3 minutes. Add nuts; toss to coat. Transfer mixture to baking sheet.
