Candied Almonds

1/2 cup water
1 cup white sugar
1 Tbsp ground cinnamon
2 cups whole almonds

*****

In a saucepan over medium heat, combine water, sugar and cinnamon.  Bring to a boil;  be sure not to allow it to burn.

Add in almonds.  Continue cooking, stirring constantly, until the liquid evaporates and leaves a crystalized coating on the almonds.

Pour almonds onto lightly greased waxed paper, and separate almonds as much as possible to allow them to cool without sticking to each other.  Allow to cool completely.
