Candied Pecans or Walnuts

1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
6 tablespoons milk
1/2 cup pecans -- (1/2 to 3/4)
1 tablespoon vanilla

Mix first 4 ingredients and bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring
occasionally. A heavy pan does better as thinner pans sometimes cause it to
burn. Cook to soft ball stage. Remove from heat; add vanilla and pecans.
Stir until all are coated well and until coating crystallizes. Quickly pour
onto waxed paper and separate with 2 forks.
