Spiced Nuts

1/2 c. sugar                       1/4 tsp. cloves
1/2 tsp. salt                       1/4 tsp. nutmeg
1 tsp. cinnamon                  2 tbsp. water
                                         1/4 lb. nuts

Mix all together. Boil to 235 deg. (or until small amount dropped into cold water forms a soft ball).

IMMEDIATELY remove from heat. Stir nut mixture until glaze turns to sugar. Pour into buttered shallow pan and spread thinly. When cool, break apart.

Makes about 1/3 pound spiced nuts.
