KOZINAKI

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F
• Spread the chopped nuts in a single layer in a pan and toast them in the oven for 8 to 10 minutes, turning them about with a spoon from time to time.
• Watch carefully for any sign of burning.
• In a heavy 2-quart pan, combine the honey and sugar and, stirring constantly, bring to a boil.
• When the syrup reaches 220°F on a thermometer, lower the heat and stir in the nuts.
• Stirring often, cook for 15 minutes.
• Brush the inside of an 8- to 9-inch round pie tin or pan with cold water and pour in the nut mixture.
• Smooth the top and set aside, uncovered, to cool.
• When firm, dip the pan into hot water and invert a flat plate on top.
• Grasping the two firmly together, turn over; the candy should slide out in one piece.
• With a sharp knife dipped in hot water, cut into diamond shapes.
• The candy will keep at room temperature for about one week.
