JCJ Vanilla Almonds

We love this recipe for snacking, hanging out with some friends, and watching some football!  Or, make up a big batch and portion out for afternoon snacks or kids' lunchboxes!

JCJ's Vanilla Almond Crunch

1/4 cup partly skimmed evaporated milk
1 Tbsp of cinnamon
1 1/2 tsp of vanilla extract
3 cups of Almonds
1 cup of sugar
2 Tbsp of Vanilla Whey powder

1. Preheat oven to 300'F.  Spread almonds on a cookie sheet and bake, stirring after 10 minutes.  After 20 minutes, remove almonds and let cool as needed.

2. Combine evaporated milk, cinnamon, vanilla extract and sugar in a pot.  Dissolve mixture over medium heat.  

3. Add almonds and continue to cook and stir frequently.  Cook until nuts are completely covered and no liquid is left. Lightly coat the cooked almonds with Vanilla Whey powder.

4. Spread over cookie sheet on wax paper to let them cool.

*Optional: add 2 Cups of Kashi Honey Sunshine Cereal to help give them a extra cruncybite!
