Tammilee, I bet it was frustrating for you that this recipe wasn’t coming up (beautiful pictures, though). I kept clicking everything in the ‘Filed Under:” reference and when I clicked on Gifts in a Jar, I was able to locate the recipe. Yeahhh! I’m making these as little gifts in decorated bags for our Women’s Ministry lunch. Wish you could see how pretty they are. Thanks for sharing this easy, yummy recipe.
OMG, making these in my Instant Pot!!!
I have repeatedly gone to your website to print out the recipe of the candied walnuts and the recipe itself is not there. It only shows the photo but no recipe.
Hi, I am not sure why this is happening. I am going to work on the post today and see if I can fix it.
Can’t locate the recipe for the crockpot sweet and spicy nuts.
