Steps
In a large saute pan, melt the butter on medium-high heat. Reduce the heat to medium. Then, add the walnuts, white granulated sugar, and brown sugar. Mix until all the sugar has coated the walnuts. Continue cooking and stirring for 2 minutes on medium heat until all sugar has dissolved on walnuts.
Remove the candied walnuts off the heat and pour the candied walnuts on a sheet of parchment paper.
Spread the candied walnuts out and allow to cool and harden for at least 10 minutes. Store candied walnuts in a sealed container for up to one week.

Thank you for a devine recipe!
This week, HAZELNUTS!
Valerie on 2022-02-14 (5 stars): Made this with pecans (that’s what I had) instead of walnuts. Oh so good! This is a definite keeper!
Joan B on 2021-09-16 (3 stars): THe taste was OK and they were quick and easy to make but the butter/sugar mix did not adhere to the walnuts as well as I anticipated and when they hardened the "candied" mixture was sometimes separate from the walnuts.
Dawndrea on 2020-11-01 (5 stars): We got 2 bags of walnuts and my husband is allergic so I used this recipe for ME I will take them to work and munch!
