I'm not a big fan of walnuts, but I actually really enjoyed these. The sherry and orange flavors are really good together.

These walnuts are a great way to use up leftover orange peels. I always have a few oranges on hand, so I'm always looking for new ways to use the peels. This recipe is a great solution.

I followed the recipe exactly and the walnuts turned out burnt. I'm not sure what went wrong.

The walnuts were a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll cut back on the sugar next time.

These walnuts are a great snack or addition to a salad. They're also a nice gift idea. I made a batch for my neighbor and she loved them.
