I try not to write too many “OMG, this recipe is soooo good!” posts. I try.
But oh my gosh, this recipe is so good.
You need to just stop what you are doing and go make these candied pecans. It takes, like, 20 minutes and then you’ve got these irresistible nutty confections.
Soooooo good. (I’m sorry!)

I’m confused; the recipe says, "2 tablespoons cup Yacon Syrup". Is that 2 tablespoons, or 2 cups?
Can’t wait to try them. Thanks.
