Morning all! After a quick peek out the window, am glad I don't have to go anywhere today. Ice is hanging off of just about everything outside! Our high today is only supposed to be 34 degrees. Gonna be in the 20's for lows most of the week also, with not much warm up til after Thanksgiving. It's ok, I have pumpkin pie to bake & other things to keep the oven going to help with the warmth in the house. Think we'll have baked acorn squash tonight with something else. When I need a break, I'll just pop into the hole for some libations!

Today's hint: your town isn't as big as a city, but you do have an airport.

I also love them tassies and make them every year and like you PenniF I am so very thankful I purchased those Pampered Chef molders and I have 2 of them. They are sure a time saver. For those of you who have not made tassies before, you are missing out. Better get the recipe for they are so yummy.

Tassies are cookies that look and taste like mini pecan pies...You need a mini muffin pan to make them.
Recipe is:
Dough --
1/2 cup sugar, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 3/4 cup butter, 1 egg, 1/2 teaspoon vanilla, 2 cups all purpose flour.
Cream sugar, salt and butter. Add egg and vanilla. Stir in flour. Chill 1 hour
Filling --
1/4 cup light brown sugar
1 tablespoon melted butter
1 egg
1/2 cup Karo syrup - i use half dark and half light
1 tablespoon flour
1/8 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla
3/4 cup finely chopped pecans
Mix together all incredients in order.
TO MAKE -- roll dough into about 1 inch balls - roll balls in granulated sugar - put each into mini muffin tin and press to form a little "cup" of dough. Add filling - about 1/2 to 2/3 full
BAKE in preheated 350 degree oven for 10-15 minutes -- remove from pan immediately.(they should pop right out)

HOPE YOU ENJOY....

Your cookies look amazing, you have been very busy. I have been trying to catch up on everyone's posts, read back about 7-8 pages, it's hard to keep up. We were without power for a couple of days and I have been busy making a dozen thread catchers for my girlfriends when we get together for our cookie swap in Dec. And I'm busy making a couple of things for my son-to-be new grandson's shower on Dec. 7 so I haven't been on the computer much. Looks like everyone is having fun. I've done a little of looking around trying to figure out who my secret santa is but with no luck. Anyway, that darn box is driving me nuts, even though I am super busy that box is like a bug sitting on my shoulder!
