Sweet and Salty Frito Bars

My favorite chips have to be hands down corn chips.  They are great to eat alone, in chili, with cheese dip……

I also really enjoy sweet and salty combos.  So I thought I would experiment with Fritos.

These turned out super!!  It is just the perfect amount of sweet and salty.  These are also super easy to put together.
