Sweet Swedish Pecans Recipe


Sweet Swedish Pecans Recipe
I have no idea why these are called "Swedish Pecans" - my mother began making these sweet treats many years ago. I like to make several batches during the holidays to wrap up in pretty containers and give as gifts. They are addictive little bites!
