Absolutely delicious with any combination of nuts. It is highly requested at the holidays. Perfect with cocktails or just for a little grab and go snack. Really, you’ve gotta try these!
Walter Morgan
Made with cashews – so good! Yes, one tablespoon of butter is enough. No, 1/2 tsp of cayenne is not too much. It’s a perfect recipe!
Tristan Gordon
Easy and so much better than just plain nuts!

These are fantastic!! Since I cannot have sugar I substituted it with raw honey. I also doubled the cayenne since some said it wasn’t spicy enough. I will definitely be doing more of these, especially around holiday time.
