No, much simpler. I can never find the recipe I used the previous year
so I Google for something that looks close.

It is usually something like pouring either butter or beaten egg white
over ~2lb of pecans in a bowl, then combining sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg,
a pinch of cloves and cayenne or ginger and pouring it over the nuts,
mixing well, then spreading on foil or parchment or on a buttered
baking sheet and baking until crisp, turning once with a spatula while
baking. Cool before storing in an airtight jar or tin.

If I find the recipe I'll post it. I don't understand where my "saved"
recipes disappear to on my computer.
