Cashew Butter Cashews

"We’ve carried lot of cashews in our time. Some have been flavored with sesame seeds and honey, others flavored with Thai limes and chiles, but our latest venture into the cashew milieu might be the most unique yet: cashews flavored with…cashews! Or, to be more specific, cashew butter. Indeed, Trader Joe’s Cashew Butter Cashews combine the classic crunch and savory flavor of one of our favorite nuts with the sweet and nutty splendor of silky cashew butter, resulting in a remarkably delicious (if curiously recursive) snack. Our supplier, a confectioner who specializes in candied nut treats like these, makes each batch by coating honey roasted cashews in a thick layer of creamy cashew butter, which itself is dotted by bits of crushed cashews. Each bite has a satisfying mix of soft and crunchy textures, as well as sweet and lightly salty flavors, making them an ideal treat for bringing to the movies, bringing along for car rides or commutes, or enjoying by the handful on a hike."
