Candied Pecans

Fruit Dip

Method

Candied Pecans

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Gather all ingredients needed for the candied pecans.

  2. 2

    Cook the Pecans

    In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Stir in the sugar, cinnamon, and salt. Once the mixture is bubbling, add the pecan halves. Stir continuously for about 5-7 minutes until the pecans are evenly coated and the sugar has caramelized.

  3. 3

    Cool the Pecans

    Spread the candied pecans onto a parchment-lined baking sheet in a single layer. Allow them to cool completely, about 15-20 minutes.

Fruit Dip

  1. 4

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Gather all ingredients needed for the fruit dip.

  2. 5

    Mix the Dip

    In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, vanilla extract, powdered sugar, and sour cream. Use a hand mixer or a whisk to blend until smooth and creamy, about 2-3 minutes.

  3. 6

    Serve

    Transfer the fruit dip to a serving bowl and arrange the fresh fruit around it on a platter. Optionally, sprinkle the cooled candied pecans over the top of the dip or serve them alongside.
