Ingredients

1 cup sugar
2 cups water
1/2 cup apple juice
1/2 cup finely chopped pecans, toasted
1/4 teaspoon vanilla, butter, and nut flavoring
1/8 teaspoon salt

Directions

1

Place sugar in a large heavy skillet over medium-high heat; cook until sugar dissolves, stirring constantly (do not use a nonstick skillet). Continue cooking an additional 5 minutes or until sugar is golden, stirring constantly. Remove from heat; carefully stir in water (caramelized sugar will harden and stick to spoon). Add apple juice. Place skillet over medium-high heat; cook until caramelized sugar melts.
