Sweet and Spicy Rumaki

            It is so hot and sweet and delicious! My sister Brooke got this recipe and passed it on to us.  Growing up my mom always made Rumaki as part of our New Year's Eve dinner and as an appetizer other times during the year.  My mom's is very good, but but Brooke's is better, so mom's recipe has been replaced.  My mom has even replaced it.  

one package of bacon, thawed
2 cans of sliced water chestnuts
box of tooth picks

Sauce:  1/4 cup mayonnaise
             1/2 cup brown sugar
             1/4cup (or less, is recommended! more like 1/8 cup) of "Sriracha HOT chili sauce" this comes in a clear bottle and the sauce is red. 
      
Cut the bacon into thirds.  Then wrap each piece of bacon around two slices of water chestnuts and secure with a toothpick.  Set them all in a casserole dish close together.  Then mix up the three ingredients for the sauce and spoon mixture evenly over all of them. Try to not get the sauce on the toothpicks.  This makes them easier to eat.
Bake at 375 for 45 minutes.
