This is a sweet but addictive treat!!! You keep coming back for a few pieces at a time all day. A fun addition to the holiday season! I would suggest lining you very large baking sheet with parchment paper because the red hots melt and make everything very sticky. An easy recipe for the new or young cook!

This is a definite kid pleaser...however my husband and I both found it a bit on the sweet side. We didn't have any trouble polishing off our little bowls of it during the family film though. I will keep this recipe in my finger food file for times when the kids need to bring something to a church function or other activity. Thanks for posting your recipe.
