Christmas Nuts N’ Bolts Snack

Christmas-Nuts-N'-Bolts-Sna

This snack is standard issue at a lot of households during the holidays but it’s not just for Christmas. This is great party fare regardless of the occasion. I’m thinking couchgatin’ for football games!

It is great during the holiday season though. You can take it to holiday parties or even make up a nice presentation and give it for gifts.

The sauce is is what makes the dish in my opinion. Almost any combination of other ingredients will work just fine. Two I don’t leave out, however, are the peanuts and pretzels.

This is definitely a keeper and a must try. Make up a batch with the kiddies. They’ll enjoy eating their own creations!
