OLD-FASHIONED SUGARED NUTS

At my bridal shower, everyone brought a recipe to share with me as we started our life as a married couple. My mom brought this sugared nuts recipe that was also from my beloved aunt and grandma. It's a little indulgent and perfect for batch-making around the holidays! Everyone will be asking you for the recipe as well!
