Ingredients:

1 pound walnut pieces (or your favorite nut)
8 T (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted
1/2 cup confectioners' sugar
1 1/2 t ground cinnamon

1/4 t ground ginger
1/4 t ground allspice
1/8 t ground cloves

Cooking Instructions:

In a 3 1/2 quart slow cooker, stir the walnuts and butter until combined. Add the confectioners' sugar, stirring to coat evenly. Cover and slow-cook on High (300F) for 15 minutes. Reduce the heat to low (200F) and slow-cook, uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the nuts are coated with a crisp glaze, about 2 hours. Transfer the nuts to a serving bowl. In a small bowl, combine the cinnamon, ginger, allspice and cloves. Sift the spices over the nuts, stirring to coat evenly. Cool the nuts completely before serving.
