Prepare a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a medium skillet, combine walnuts, both sugars, butter, water, and cinnamon if using.
Cook over high heat, stirring constantly. The sugar should melt and form a caramel coating in about 5 minutes.
Spread the coated walnuts on the baking sheet in a single layer to cool. Once cooled, break them apart.
Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two weeks (if they last that long!).
