Cinnamon & Sugar Candied Nuts

So I've had candied nuts before, but I'd never tried making them myself.  I had no idea how easy they were to make!  I whipped up a batch of these cinnamon and sugar candied nuts and I planned on having them out for snacks on Thanksgiving, but I don't know if they will last that long.  They're very addictive.  Once you eat one, you can't stop!  I used both pecans and almonds, but the pecans were definitely the favorite!
Yield: 4-6 servings
