Directions
Panocha Walnuts, After used these in Christmas goodie boxes, the requests for MORE poured in — the fudge-like coating just melts in your mouth!, Fabulous recipe! I was able to easily add as much as 3 cups of walnuts, and they came out great! I doubled the recipe and mused 6 cups of walnuts, using my 6-quart sauce pan You have to move quickly, because it can become unwieldy, but they were still beautiful and broke apart easily with a fork These are addictive! Adding this note: The name should be changed to Penuche Walnuts I found out the hard way that Panocha has a double meaning in Spanish when I gave a labeled tin of them to my nephew, whose father is Mexican He bust out laughing and told me that panocha means the rude P word in Spanish Run a Google Translate or check out Urban Dictionary to verify Panocha is a common spelling for a sweet sugary treat, but you will get laughs and snickers if you spell it this way in California, Arizona, New Mexico, etc Just thought you might want to know , Wow! I made these for christmas, guess I forgot to review them I made these for gift baskets, along with cookies and other candy They were very good and definitely addictive Thanks for the recipe
