1/4 cup powdered sugar
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/8 teaspoon salt
4 ounces walnuts (about one heaping cup; don't use pieces)

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • In a medium sized bowl, mix together the sugar, cayenne and salt.
  • Bring a small saucepan of water to boil. Add the walnuts and blanch them for 3 minutes. Drain well and then immediately roll the walnuts in the sugar mixture until thoroughly coated.

1/2 cup sugar
1 1/2 cups walnut halves, toasted
1/8 teaspoon coarse salt

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Toast walnuts on a rimmed baking sheet for 10 minutes. Cool completely.

Spread onto a rimmed baking sheet lined with a Silpat baking mat, and toast for 10 minutes. Use 2 forks to separate nuts. Sprinkle with salt. Let cool completely.

  • Be patient. Making candy can be a time-consuming process. Don't rush the steps, or you may end up with a batch of candy that is not as good as it could be.
  • Store the candy properly. Black walnut candy should be stored in an airtight container in a cool, dry place. It will keep for up to two weeks.
