ingredients
1 pound pecans or walnut pieces
1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1/4 teaspoon ground allspice
1/8 teaspoon ground cloves
1 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
directions
Preheat slow cooker on high for 15 minutes.
First, in preheated slow cooker stir the nuts and butter until mixed well. Add the powdered sugar, stirring to coat evenly. Cover and slow-cook on HIGH for 15 minutes.
Reduce the heat to LOW and slow cook, uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the nuts are coated with a crisp glaze (should be about 2 hours).
Transfer the nuts to a bowl.
In another small bowl, combine the spices and sift them over the nuts, stirring to coat evenly. Let cool before serving.

Love the spinach dip at restaurants like TGIFriday's and the Olive Garden? Make it at home with these easy-to-follow copycat recipes.
Not to be confused with evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk is very sweet (and very sticky) and used primarily in desserts.

I added the spices with the powdered sugar and it turned out fine so I'm not sure why the separate step of adding them later. These nuts are good as a snack but also fantastic used on top of desserts or ice cream.
