Triple Chocolate-Nut Clusters image

I got this recipe from Southern Living some years ago, and regularly make it as "Thank you" gifts, and treats for friends who stop by. This recipe uses three kinds of chocolate and 3 kinds of nuts. These are absolutely delicious and one of the easiest candy confections you will ever make. I sometimes use the cocktail party nuts....

These were so easy to make and turned out great! I used dark chocolate chips and they were the perfect amount of sweetness. I will definitely be making these again.
