    great little snack when I have a sweet tooth! - 1/3/11

    I took the advice of other posters: added vanilla to egg white, increased the cinnamon, used Splenda instead of sugar, decreased nuts to 20 oz, added 1/2 c brown sugar. Ends up being 160 cal and 13 g fat for 20 nuts. SO delicious!!! Stirred a lot during cooling to prevent sticking, which worked. - 12/17/09

    Great recipe! I tripled the recipe and used half white sugar and half brown sugar. Easy and makes a great gift! - 12/15/08

    I have a recipe similar to this, but didn't use egg whites, just water, Splenda Brown Sugar Blend & cinnamon - no salt. Didn't need to grease the pan either, just lined with foil. Bake at 300 for about 10 minutes. - 10/4/08

    I bumped up the heat to 275 and roasted a little less long. I doubled the recipe and used 9 cups of almonds, used half brown sugar, and added some cloves, nutmeg, and allspice. My family loved them, though I thought they were a little bland. Maybe more salt? - 12/14/09

    I tried this and didn't get good result but it was my fault. I was in a hurry and used 325 degrees. The almonds all clumped and stuck together on the baking sheet and the bottoms were scorched. - 12/12/09

    I tried these last night - an hour really overcooked them and they were stuck together. - 11/15/09

    I just had these homemade by a family member, they are so addicting! I love them! I can't wait to make some of my own, only a healthier version. - 4/14/09
