Cookies!!

i'm not much of a baker, but something about the holidays just brings out the betty crocker in me and i get the urge to create something in my own kitchen. i've made these cranberry pecan tassies before and, while i always remember how yummy they are, i never seem to remember how majorly time and labor intensive they are. each of the 48 little pastry shells has to be individually pinched and kneaded into place - quite a project!

so was it worth it?? well, i let my husband be the first taste-tester and these are his exact words:

Mmmmm..................mmmmm.................mmmmm.

i guess i would call that success!!
