👩‍🍳 Instructions:

1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.
2. In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine honey, butter, and water. Stir until melted and smooth. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla if using.
3. In a bowl, pour the honey mixture over the cashews and mix until evenly coated.
4. Spread cashews in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
5. Bake for 15–18 minutes, stirring once halfway, until golden and fragrant. Watch carefully — they can burn quickly near the end.
6. Remove from oven and immediately sprinkle with sugar and salt, tossing to coat evenly while still warm.
7. Let cool completely — they’ll crisp up as they cool.
