SUGAR-FROSTED CASHEWS

            1 cup sugar            1 cup raw unsalted cashews
            ¼ cup water            

Mix the sugar and water in a saucepan. Bring to 300° over medium heat. Add the cashews; stir occasionally until they turn a very light brown. Remove the pan from the heat. Stir until the syrup turns to sugar. Pour the cashews onto waxed paper immediately.
