Spicy Orange Pecans


1 1/2 c. powdered sugar 
2 T. cornstarch 
1 tsp. cinnamon 
1/4 tsp. allspice 
1/8 tsp. salt 
2 T. orange peel, freshly grated (or cheat) 
2 egg whites, slightly beaten 
3 T. freshly squeezed orange juice (or cheat) 
2 c. pecans 

Sift together sugar, cornstarch, spices, and salt; stir in orange peel. Blend egg whites with orange juice; stir in pecans, coating each piece completely. Drain thoroughly. Then roll in sugar mixture to coat well. Spread on cookie sheet; do not allow pecans to touch. Bake at 250 degrees for 20 to 25 minutes, or until dry. Cool before storing in covered container.
