You shouldn't dry your pumpkin seeds before you make this recipe. If your seeds are dry, just coat them with a little vegetable oil. It works great. Just made this recipe and it's delicious.

so did the butter work?

There must be somethign missing from the recipe..like butter or something. I made these and the brown sugar mixture didn't even stick to the pumpkin seeds...I just added some butter so we'll see if that helps.
