Spiced Pecans

5-6 Tablespoons Butter
4-5 Tablespoons brown sugar
1/2 -3/4 teaspoon cayenne (optional)
1/2 - 3/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon powdered ginger
2 cups pecans

Place pecans in a pan over medium heat 5-7 minutes. This will help make it crunchier. Make a well in the center of the pan. Add brown sugar and 1 Tablespoon water, stir and try to keep it in the center. Add spices. Add butter and reduce heat and mix. Cook 1-3 minutes. Do not overcook or the butter will burn. Place on wax or parchment paper, spread out and let cool. When dry, enjoy as a snack or on salad.
