A Perfect Hostess Gift

Every year I try to come up with something creative to give as hostess gifts for all the crazy parties I go to. This year I didn't have to go far. The December issue of Bon Appetit had a recipe for these fabulous Candied Espresso Walnuts. Yum.

I don't drink coffee anymore, so just the scent of espresso beans in the kitchen made me smile. The walnuts ended up tasty like salty-sweet-crunchy coffee. A treat and a pick-me-up, all at the same time. I found the to-go containers at Paper Depot and designed a little label to identify the treats.
