A great brittle to make for gift giving, or for party favors. Also makes a great hostess gift. I like to use the macadamia nuts from a can, already perfectly salted. More recently you can find wasabi flavored, teriyaki flavored and even chili macadamia nuts.
Any flavor would work well with this recipe.
