How to Make Kahlua Glazed Pecans
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a medium saucepan, combine 1 cup granulated sugar, ½ cup light corn syrup, ¼ cup Kahlua, 2 tablespoons butter, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Heat over medium-high heat to 260°F (127°C), using a candy thermometer, stirring frequently to prevent burning.
- Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
- Stir in 4 cups pecan halves. Transfer to the prepared baking sheet, spreading the pecans in a single layer.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown and caramelized. Remove from oven and immediately sprinkle with ½ teaspoon sea salt.
- Let cool for a few minutes on the baking sheet. Then, gently separate the pecans to prevent sticking.
- Once completely cool, toss the pecans gently to ensure even salt distribution. Store in an airtight container at room temperature.
