Ingredients

The ingredients are:
  • 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 pounds unsalted cashew nuts (see Note below)
  • 2 teaspoons brown sugar (I prefer to use dark brown)
  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter (melted)
  • 2 tablespoons fresh rosemary, fine chopped (see Note below)
  • 1/2 to 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper (to taste)
  • 2 teaspoons kosher salt
We recommend you get your ingredients ready before you start cooking. Once you're ready, here are the steps to making this delicious recipe

How to Make

  • Step 1: Cashews ... Add the cashews to a sheet pan lined with foil or parchment paper, for easy clean up. Then, roast the cashews in a 375 degree oven, middle shelf, for approximately 10 minutes until warm and lightly toasted.

  • Step 2: Butter Sauce ... Add the butter, rosemary, cayenne, and salt to a small bowl or measuring cup; and, microwave 1-2 minutes on medium heat until melted.

  • Step 3: Finish and Serve ... Add the cashews and butter sauce to a bowl and toss to coat. Serve immediately. TIP: Roast the cashews ahead of time. Then, heat up the butter sauce and toss. Just as good; perfect for Sunday sports, card/game night, parties and entertaining. ENJOY!

  • Step 4: Note: I have also used a mix of cashews and peanuts; or almonds would also be very nice. And, I have used a mix of thyme and rosemary which was also very good.
