Recipe Notes
Dress It Up:
For a more chewy coating, melt a small slice of butter in pan before adding the rest of the ingredients.
For a little more flavor, throw a splash of vanilla into pan with other ingredients.
Notes:
Brown sugar also results in a chewier almond with a little richer flavor. However, equally good is granulated sugar which gives a fine, crunchy coating.
