Easy and addictive. I upped the heat with some cayenne and swapped out the cilantro garnish for a light cumin sprinkle.
Diane Navarro
1/4 rounded teaspoon ground , I think this is the measurement for the coriander.

OMG – these were so easy to make and delicious as well. I made them for a Cinco de Mayo party and they were devoured in minutes. Perfect amount of heat – not too spicy. I left off the cilantro due to my dislike of it. Everyone asked for the recipe. A definite keeper!

These are the perfect mix of heat, sweet and crunch.  Love them!  Sent recipe to all of my cooking friends:)

Delicious!!! Everyone loves these…. actually surprised that there aren’t more reviews. These are so great for mixing things up before serving anything Tex-Mex.

Very good! Addictive little snack.

Very tasty!  Will be having around the house as a nibble treat!  I used unsalted peanuts and sprinkled some salt lightly on them at the end.  Also used chili powder instead of the chipotle powder since I could not find mine until after I made the recipe!  Enjoy the goodness and tasty treat!
