 In a heavy saucepan, preferably nonstick, bring the honey and lemon juice


 to a boil over medium-high heat. Add the nuts and cook, stirring


 constantly, until the mixture thickens and darkens (be careful not to let


 it burn), about 15-20 minutes. Pour out onto a nonstick pan, such as a


 jellyroll pan or a large skillet moistened with cold water and spread to a


 thickness of about 1/4 inch. Let cool completely. When fully hardened,


 break into small pieces. Makes about 3/4 pound of candy. Store in a tightly


 sealed tin.


 


 Since I adapted this from a recipe for nuant, or walnut brittle, I guess


 you can use any kind of nuts. You could dip the finished candy in melted


 chocolate, too.
