NUTS AND BOLTS CANDY RECIPES

Steps:

• In a large glass bowl, melt the butter in the microwave.
• Stir in the worcestershire and all the spices, whisk until well blended.
• Pour the snack ingredients into a large turkey roaster, pour the sauce over top.
• Mix well, bake uncovered at 225 degrees for one hour, stirring every 10 minutes.
• Store in tins, makes a great hostess gift.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 250 F, and have 2 oven tray/cookie sheets handy. If your cookie sheets are old and tired, you can line them with parchment paper if you wish.
• Put the dry ingredients into a large vessel. A roasting pan works nicely for size. You're only mixing in, not using the roasting pan for baking.
• Mix the melted butter, garlic salt, celery salt and Worcestershire.
• Pour the butter mixture over the dry ingredients. Be sure to mix everything very well - I get in there with my nice, clean hands and toss together thoroughly. At this point you won't see a lot of visible butter sauce coating the dry mix, but the butter mixture will be plentiful and will nicely spread around once baking in the oven.
• Spread the sauce covered nuts and bolts in a single layer on oven trays or cookie sheets and bake for 30 minutes at 250 F while stirring and mixing frequently during baking time. I stir, turn and mix about every 10 minutes during the 30 minute baking time. The dry ingredients will be nicely toasted at the end of baking.
• Remove from the oven, cool and store in airtight containers or Ziploc bags.
• These nuts and bolts are easily frozen if you'd like to make them in advance. Some of my family like to eat them right out of the freezer.
