Karin's Toffee Nut Candy

1 cup honey
1/2 tsp. white vinegar
1-1/2 tblsp. butter
1/2 cup almond butter, or cashew butter, or hazelnut butter
crushed pecans

1. Bring honey and vinegar to a boil and simmer (until you can drop some of it into a glass of cold water and it turns into a soft ball).
2. Remove from heat and stir in butter until melted.
3. Set pan in cold water and beat until thick.
4. Add nut butter and crushed pecans.

*The candy should be thick enough so that you can roll some between your hands and place balls into small paper cups. HOWEVER: when using hazelnut butter the candy seems to stick to the paper cups, so you have to use the little foil cups instead.

Refrigerate. Remove to room temperature just before serving.

Now, just try and eat one!
