• Add nuts last.
• Note:We quadruple this recipe or more each year.
• For each additional batch, keep out some of the sugar until the batch has rested.

• ****For freezing batches I do this without the nuts-they tend to mush out over long periods of time-and though they freeze well as nuts they don't adapt to freezing in liquid foods.
• **2010 update re: option for nuts. Place crushed nuts in a small side bowl and let those who like the nuts sprinkle what they want to mix in with their serving. This also works well, because if there are leftovers, you can freeze it without worrying about the nuts getting mushy. Other option--make two batches, one with and one without With large family gatherings and different tastes or food some can't eat, requirements, this solves the problem. Enjoy.
