1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
2 tablespoons good-quality mayonnaise
1/4 to 1/2 cup chopped pecans
1 (16 ounce) can jellied cranberry sauce, chilled

Mix cream cheese and mayonnaise until creamy. It needs to be spreadable. Add pecans and mix well. Slice cranberry sauce in 1/4-inch rounds and spread cream cheese mixture on 1 round and place another round on top, sandwich style. Cut each round in half like a sandwich and place in shallow container, covered. Keep in refrigerator until time to serve.
