These Homemade Bar Nuts are sweet and savory and completely addicting

These sweet and savory…..and completely addicting homemade bar nuts are a great snack to have strategically placed in your home for guests.  Especially over the holidays!  Individual wine carafes make  pretty serving vessels for the nuts, as I’m not particularly fond of serving nuts in bowls for a lot of fingers to be poking around in.   Leaves little to be desired!
