Coffee Walnuts

IMG_0378.JPG

Basically these taste like coffee ice cream melted on walnuts. SO delicious! A simple and unique snack or dessert for the holidays or any time of year really. I do recommend the use of a food thermometer for this recipe because you want the mixture to be at the right temperature before adding the walnuts. If you don’t have a food or candy thermometer, I have linked one below. Otherwise, when the mixture starts to boil and thicken is when it is done. Enjoy!

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup brown sugar

  • 1/2 cup sour cream

  • 1 Tbs instant coffee powder

  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

  • 2 1/2 cups walnut halves

  • Coconut oil spray or other cooking spray

Instructions:

  • In a saucepan combine brown sugar, sour cream and instant coffee powder. Cook on low-medium heat and stir for about 15-20 minutes until mixture reaches 235 degrees F (soft ball stage). The mixture will the thick.

  • Remove from heat. Add vanilla and walnuts. Gently stir until all the nuts are coated.

  • Spray a large shallow pan or dish with coconut oil. Pour mixture into this pan.

  • With two forks, separate the nuts.

  • Cool and store in an air tight container.
