A medley of warm spices tempered with a touch of brown sugar is a great match for rich, nutritious pecans. They make a perfect nibble with a drink before dinner or afterward with a cup of espresso.

I found these pecans need a little something more, so I served them with semi-sweet chocolate chips. The spices and dark chocolate make a perfect medley.
