Orange juice and two kinds of citrus zest give these candied nuts a fresh, unique flavor. Try adding these to baked goods, trail mix, or even chopped over breakfast cereals.

Fudgy Nuts are coated with a soft layer of sour cream fudge, resulting in a snack that’s crunchy, smooth, sweet, and tangy. The longer these sit out, the softer they get, and I like them after they have softened for several days.
