How far would you travel for chocolate? And what if that chocolate came with a lot of crunch and a sprinkle of sea salt? Chances are, you’d trek over the river and through the words to Grandma’s house if you had to. A chocolaty, candy-like cluster featuring all the favorite fixings – sweet, salty, nutty – is impossible to pass up, which means you better start packing…packing your pantry, that is. Chocolate may not make the world go around, but it sure does make the trip (to the kitchen) worthwhile!
