Today's Nestle Toll House Winter Dark Chocolate and Mint Morsels were distributed by Nestle Baking, a division of Nestle USA, Inc. (Solon, OH).
How might these morsels best be transformed into a portable outdoor snack? What other ingredients would they be compatible with? This was this morning's self-inflicted challenge.The morsels had a pronounced mint and sweet dark chocolate aroma and flavor, but, surprisingly made for a good snack mix that also contained:
- Chocolate Chex (rice) cereal
- green pistachios and pumpkin seeds
- homemade bits of almond sesame crackers w/ sea salt
The mint gave this treat an extra refreshing kick during a winter waterside hike today.
