Ingredients:  
2 c. pecan halves
2 tbsp. butter
1/4 tsp. cayenne or other hot pepper
3 tbsp.sugar
4 tsp. cinnamon
1/2 tsp. salt
Directions:
Directions:
Use a large enough skillet so pecans are in one layer. A non-stick skillet works well.

1. Melt the butter in the skillet and add the hot pepper.
2. Add pecans to skillet and cook over medium heat. Stir every 30 seconds.
After 2 or 3 minutes, stir them constantly until they just begin to brown. Pecans burn very quickly, so keep your eyes on them. If the butter starts smoking before this point, turn off the heat and call them done.
3. Stir in cinnamon, salt, and sugar. Remove from pan and place in bowl - pecans can still burn sitting in the hot pan.
4. When they seem cool enough to taste, adjust seasonings accordingly if you want more salt or sugar.
