Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

In a non-stick sauté pan, combine butter, sugar and spices and cook over medium heat until sugar dissolves. Add the nuts and cook over medium low heat, stirring often until the mixture starts to thicken, about 10 minutes. Transfer pan to oven and cook until sugar mixture begins to caramelize. Stir the mixture often and remove when nuts are golden brown, and the sugar has become very thick, about 15 minutes. Take care not to let the nuts or sugar mixture burn.
