CJ on 2025-03-30 (5 stars): This is my go-to snack when I'm working. It really hits that sweet, but also spicy craving any time of the day. And it's a healthy alternative to anything I could get on the road. It also makes the house smell great when making and around the holidays people always enjoy it!
