Ingredients

1 cup sugar

1/2 cup water

1 teaspoon cinnamon

1 teaspoon salt

1 tablespoon imitation vanilla flavor

1/2 stick butter, unsalted

1 pound shelled, unsalted whole almonds

Directions

Preheat your candy thermometer. Combine the sugar, water, cinnamon, and salt in a saucepan. Turn the heat to medium and stir the mixture until the sugar has dissolved.

Turn the heat up to medium high, then place the thermometer into the pan. The temperature will slowly rise. Cook until the soft ball stage, 240° F.

Once the syrup reaches that temperature, remove from the heat.

Place the butter, vanilla, and almonds in a medium-sized mixing bowl. Pour in the syrup and mix everything together until the almonds are covered with the syrup.

It will take about 2 hours for the syrup to crystallize. It should turn out as a soft glaze.

Note: If eaten right away, this does not need to be stored in the fridge. If you will be eating it over several weeks it should be stored in the fridge.
