This is a recipe that my mother-in-law gave to me. My husband has to have these every years, so the recipe got passed down to me to make for him.

Maple Sugar Pecans

3 - 4 C Pecan halves1
C sugar
1/2 C water
½ t salt
1 t maple flavoring

Heat pecans at 350 degrees in oven for 15 minutes or microwave for a couple of minutes. Cook sugar, water and salt to softball stage (240 degrees). Add flavoring and nuts. Stir gently to coat and lift from syrup to buttered platter to cool and separate. (I just use wax paper.)
