Nutella Puppy Chow

Last Sunday marked Cast Iron Stew's 2nd anniversary!

It's hard to believe that I've been a blogger for so long! When I started this blog in 2014, I had no idea how much joy and support I would get. Thanks to all of my loyal readers who keep coming back back each and every Tuesday!

This week's very special recipe is a twist on one of my favorite desserts: Puppy Chow. Enjoy!
