Easy Pecan Tassies
I remember my mom making these pretty shortly after she started attending Pampered Chef Parties. She used to come home and start making all of the delicious recipes that she sampled at the parties.
If you like these Pampered Chef Pecan Tassies, then you might like my recipes for Old-Fashioned Pecan Pie, Sweet Potato Casserole with Pecan Crunch, or Mayflower Boat mini Pecan Pies for Thanksgiving
Out of all of the at-home product parties, Pampered Chef is the only one I’ll say yes to every time.
