One of Most Favorite Christmas Treats.....

You can get great recipes on The Sisters Cafe Recipe Blog.  There is a link to their blog on my page here on the right.  I saw this and had to share.  This is one of our favorite Christmas treats.  Everyone knows these little treats...you smell them roasting in all their yummy sweetness while you shop at the malls this time of year.  The first time I had these was in Salzburg, Austria of all places!  Steve and I bought them in the open air market...it is a very romantic memory...which makes this treat even sweeter...  Enjoy!

Cinnamon Roasted Almonds

1 cup white sugar
½ tsp. salt
2 tsp. cinnamon
1 egg white
1 tsp. vanilla
4 cups almonds
Preheat oven to 250. Cover a 13x17” baking sheet with parchment paper, or grease well. In small bowl combine sugar, salt and cinnamon. Set aside. In a large bowl slightly beat the egg white. Add vanilla and beat until very frothy, but not stiff. Add the almonds and stir until well coated. Add the cinnamon sugar mixture and toss until evenly coated. Spread evenly on the prepared pan. Bake for one hour, stirring half way through. Allow to cool, then store in an airtight container.
