Submitted by AmyZoe

"I wanted to serve a snack, but I didn't want it to take much time or be anything I needed to refrigerate (during the holidays there is never enough refrigererator space). This is a great way to liven up boring old peanuts. Recipe courtesy of Holly Kunkle of Walton, Kentucky and Taste of Home Christmas 2010."
