Anyone who knows anything about me knows that I love to dance. Full-on dad style. If you know anything else about me, it’s that I have a huge sweet tooth. One of my favorite ways to indulge my cravings for sweets is with my almond butter bacon-wrapped dates. I make it with fresh pitted dates, crispy bacon, and JUSTIN’S® Maple Almond Butter. It’s so good it makes me feel like I could dance!

What’s spookier than a mystery pretzel found in your suitcase purchased from an unidentified airport on an unknown trip from who knows how long ago? These Peanut Butter Stuffed Chocolate Dipped Pretzels. And by spooky, I mean that in the spooktacularly-cute Halloween sense, of course. The mystery pretzel is the other kind of spooky.
