excellent, I doubled the chipotle since we like things spicy, the cranberries we definitely a nice foil to the nuts, expensive, but good. I put them in nice jars and gave them away at Christmas.
Read MoreI made these for a party and they were a huge hit!
Read MoreGreat combination of citrus and chipotle tastes, nicely highlighted by the dried cranberries. Easy to make.
Read MorePecan prices finally became affordable so decided to try these. We can't stop eating them. A perfect balance of sweet and spicy, definately get the Chipotle ! Will be making these as gifts and to have on hand for company.
Read MoreEhh- bland. Needs something to kick it up a bit.
Read MoreThese are amazing! So quick, easy, and tasty! I have made these a few times this holiday season and everyone who tries them is surprised by the intense flavor. A keeper for sure!
Read MoreThis was a hit Christmas Eve. The slight kick is nice. My father who usually claims everything above ketchup is spicy, even liked it. I doubled the recipe to set out before dinner for a group of 6. It was all eaten. I didn't have enough pecans, so I used walnuts too. I think any nut would work!
Read MoreSmall effort for rave reviews! I doubled the cranberries. My guests at our holiday open house loved them.
Read MoreThe best! I think it's worth it to get the Chipotle Pepper, it really adds a unique flavor to the nut mix. We had these on our hors d'oeuvres table and I swear people ate more of these nuts than anything else. The cranberries give it a nice tang and balance the spice out perfectly. As an added bonus, they make the house smell really holiday-y!
Read MoreThis is a wonderful recipe. I made two batches and everyone at the office loved it. It was easy to make. Try it.
Read MoreThis recipe is awesome. I didn't have any chipotle seasoning so I used Cheyenne pepper instead (which is a little spicier - yum) I also used dried cherries and added them right away to the nut mixture and baked these also. I've made three batches of these already and tonight I made double the recipe - these are so good.
Read MoreLOVED this -- sweet, spicy, fruity in just the right mix. Only change I made to the recipe is that I added a little bit of ground coriander (and added a little more salt the second time I made it). I used a little of this to spice up a salad, too. This will be a regular holiday treat!
Read Morejust ok. I eyeballed the orange juice and i think I ended up putting in too much, which when I drained the mix out onto the cookie sheet a lot of the spices stayed with the bowl and didnt make it onto the pecans. Doesnt have as strong of a taste as I thought but still good enough to serve to a crowd.
Read MoreI made these nuts for a Thanksgiving snack and they went over great with my cousins and my Grandma! We were all surprised at how the orange flavor really came through. I would recommend that when you mix the egg white, whip it until it's frothy. This will leave a crispier coating on the nuts which is very tasty. I would add more cranberries as well. GREAT snack for the holidays. I'll be giving them as gifts to coworkers!
Read MoreI thought these were great. The perfect combination of sweet, spicy, and a little bit of tang. I used cayenne pepper instead of chipotle (the only bottle i could find was $6). The cranberries are a perfect combination, and I would probably add more next time. They accent the pecans perfectly.
