CHINESE CHICKEN WINGS

16 Large chicken wings (remove tip and cut at joint)
4 tbs. Sugar
4 tbs. Ketchup
2 tbs. Hoisin sauce (purchased at Chinese grocer)
2 tbs. Dark soy sauce

Mix the above ingredients. Place wings in a bowl, add the mixture and stir well to coat wings. Put in refrigerator for 2 hours, mixing occasionally.  Cover cookie sheet with foil, spray cake racks with non-stick spray.  Place cake racks on cookie sheet.  Place wings on rack.  Put in 350° oven for 20 minutes.  Turn wings over for another 30 minutes, or until done.  At this time, I usually make another batch of mixture and coat the wings on one side for 5 minutes.  Repeat for other side of wings.  Enjoy !
