We've made these as Christmas presents for the last few years- quadruple the recipe, cook on two trays. Oven needs to be a bit hotter though, and REALLY important to stir as cooling or they stick to the tray.

I didn't have mixed spice so just used half teaspoon of each ginger and nutmeg, only had 200g cashews so used those and accidentally never reduced the spices but they were amazing none the less, delicious new healthy snack!!!

Tasty and delicious. I used half a tsp of mixed spice, half a tsp of ground ginger and half a tsp of ground nutmeg due to having a cinnamon hater in the house!

These are delicious to make as gifts for people, which I did at chrsitmas, and everybody loved them. They look great in jars with a ribbon round. I have had requests for them since, and they are so easy to make.

These are great, very easy to make and taste fantastic. I used half the quantity of nuts, just because that's all I bought and half the quantity of the ingredients. For us just the right amount of Christmas taste!
