Mexican Nuts (Nuez a la Mexicana) |
1 1/2 cup confectioners' sugar 2 tablespoons cornstarch 1/2 teaspoon Salt 1 teaspoon cinnamon 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon 1/4 teaspoon allspice 1/2 teaspoon chili powder (Gebhardt's preferred) 1 egg white 2 tablespoon water 1 cup nuts (pecans preferred) |

Sift dry ingredients together. Beat egg white slightly and add cold water. Dip nuts in egg white mixture, drain and roll in the sugar-spice mixture. Spread on cookie sheet so they do not touch one another and toast in a slow (250F) oven until golden in color, about 1 1/2 hours. Cool and store in air tight container. |
