Directions:

1. Place nuts in small serving bowls atop a large cutting board and serving tray, along with a nutcracker.
2. Scatter dried and fresh fruits between the bowls. Ideas include dried cranberries, dried apricots, candied ginger, and fresh apple and pear slices.
3. Pick your favorite HT Trader’s Chocolate Bars (a variety is always best), break them up and add them to the serving tray, along with a small bowl of honey.
4. Fill in any empty spaces with fresh herbs or holly.
