Stuffed Cranberry Sauce

You're going to remember this recipe. Not because you got it here. Not because it's a Paula Deen recipe. But because it is so easy to make and so delicious! I watched Paula make this on one of her Thanksgiving TV shows about five years ago and I have been making it ever since. It is a wonderful little side dish that you eat with a fork. I make it instead of cranberry relish and my guests love it.

Stuffed Cranberry Sauce

1 1/2 tablespoons mayonnaise
(16oz) Jellied Cranberry Sauce, chilled
1 8-ounce cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup chopped pecans

Mix cream cheese and mayonnaise until creamy. It needs to be spreadable so if you need more mayo, add up to another 1/2 tablespoon but no more than 2 tablespoons total. Add pecans and mix well.

Slice cranberry sauce in 1/4 inch rounds and spread cream cheese mixture on one round and place another round on top, sandwich style. Keep in fridge until time to serve.
Garnish with a piece of mint for a pretty presentation.
