Tips

Do not change the ratio of the ingredients. The ratio used turns out perfectly every time.

Do not add the sugar to the honey mixture. Itโ€™s best to sprinkle the sugar mixture on after baking so you get a sugar consistency on top of the honey roasted cashews.

FAQS

Do I need to toss these in the middle of baking?

No, this is not necessary; simply toss them with the sugar after baking.

Do I have to add the sugar?

You donโ€™t technically have to, but the sugar improves the texture to make them a bit more sugary and helps sweeten the cashews more so than if only adding butter and honey.
