I'm allergic to pecans, so I substituted walnuts in this recipe. They turned out great!

I would have liked the snappers more if the caramel sauce was a little less thick.

I've tried many pecan snapper recipes, but this one is by far the best. The caramel sauce is the perfect complement to the pecans.
