Absolutely love this recipe.
Used the parchment paper and didn't seem to have any issues.
Neat tip for serving them as a appetizer is to put portions in shot glasses. My husband and his friends loved them while watching the hockey game.
Thanks again Emeril!

For variation, try substituting other spices in lieu of the cayenne:

1/2 tsp. cocoa powder + 1/4 tsp. chipotle pepper
1/4 tsp. garam masala + 1/4 tsp. cayenne
1/4 tsp ginger + 1/4 tsp. cayenne

Be creative!

I've tried several versions of these. My preference so far is 1/3 c. sugar, 2+ T. Essence, 1 t. cayenne and a good sprinkle of salt. Sweet and spicy!

My only suggestion to save you major aggravation is to skip the %$##@! parchment! Because of the egg and sugar, these bad boys get very sticky in the process of baking and trying to "stir", i.e., unstick them from one another and the pan a few times in the process is quite a frustrating chore. Just put 'em on the plain ole baking sheet and soak it overnight when all is said and done for an easy clean-up.

Enjoy!

The first time I made these nuts I thought they were great, but I wanted a little more heat. So when I made them again, I added a little sriracha hot sauce to the nuts before baking. Now whenever I have an event at my house everyone wants to know if I'm making them. The more you make, the faster they disappear.

These are the best nuts I've ever had. They have become a staple Christmas gift around our house - that is, if I can keep my husband and boys out of them long enough to pack them up. They are easy to make and last for a long time! You can make them hotter if you like or leave it out - your choice!
