roasted almonds and orange flavored dried cranberries tossed in a chipotle caramel, ( sweet, smokey, tart and a hint of citrus )
about 1/2 lb of roasted unsalted almonds
1/4 lb of dried sweetened cranberries
about 1 cup of sugar
1 chipotle pepper ( in adobo ) chopped fine
2 tablespoons water
1 teaspoon kosher salt
2 tablespoons butter
add sugar and water to a non stick pan and cook over low heat
add the chipotle pepper and cook until it starts to become caramel in color about 5 minutes
add butter, almonds, salt and cranberries
stir until covered in caramel
note - this is not enough caramel to completely cover all of the almonds
but you will get some clusters - which is good because its not too sweet, just enough
