Spiced Rum Pecans

Last week we received a "care package" in the mail from our youngest daughter, Ashley. Inside was a small bag of these pecans and the recipe. Ok...so do I need to admit that the entire bag was consumed within the same day of receipt? They were GREAT!! Thanks Ashley for sharing!!
Spiced Rum Pecans

Mix together and set aside:
2 T. sugar
1 t. salt
1 t. cinnamon
½ t cloves
¼ t allspice
In a sauce pan, melt together:
2 T. rum (or you can substitute rum flavoring I suppose)
2 t. vanilla
1 t. brown sugar
1 t. butter Bring to slight boil, turn to medium heat and add 6-8 oz half pecans. Stir to coat and cook until there is no more liquid left in pan. Spread pecans onto baking sheet. Pour sugar mixture over pecans and toss. Set oven to broil and watch pecans closely. Broil until sugar is mostly melted and nuts are toasty. Cool & Serve. Enjoy!!
