Glazed Pecans
The Low Down
This recipe came from my grandmother who lived in Elkins WVA not far from a large swiss community. Although she was not one of them, they were gracious and shared their recipes. I don't know if this is one of them but I've been making it for about 30 years and they always get rave reviews and they go very fast.
