Bacon-Wrapped Water Chestnuts

Here is the recipe for the Bacon-Wrapped Water Chestnuts that the boys enjoy so much at holiday time!

1 small can sliced water chestnuts
1 pound bacon
2 Tbs. grape or jalapeno jelly
1 Tbs. brandy (opt.)
1 Tbs. raspberry chipotle sauce (opt.)

Preheat oven to 350. Line a cookie sheet with foil. Cut slab of bacon in half down the middle. Wrap each slice of water chestnut with a 1/2 slice of bacon. Bake on middle rack until bacon is crisp and brown. Place on serving plate.

Sauce: melt grape jelly & brandy & chipotle sauce together. Stir until smooth. If using jalapeno jelly, just melt it by itself. Pour over the water chestnuts & serve.
