Stop what you are doing and go the store to buy the ingredients to make these Mixed Nut Tarts. They are SO good! I seriously could not stop eating them! This recipe makes 45 tarts per batch. They are super simple to make. They only take about 10 minutes and they are ready for the oven. Not only are these great for tailgating, they would be perfect for Thanksgiving!

The tarts can be made up to 2 days in advance. I love make ahead recipes! Especially party/holiday make ahead recipes. I highly suggest doubling the recipe. These didn’t last long at our party. I think I ate about 5 of them right out of the oven. 😉

I am definitely planning on serving these at our Thanksgiving dinner later this month. I like to eat lots of little bites of dessert instead of one big slice of something. I don’t like to commit to just one dessert! They also keep with my easy holiday theme – quick and easy! I need everything to be easy to  prep and quick and easy clean up with my InSinkErator Evolution Excel Garbage Disposal! Stress free holiday for the win!

  1. Would these work for a bake sale? I'm not sure how expensive the shells are. Would they be too expensive to sell well so that we don't lose money? I'm definitely making them for the holidays either way!

    1. Sorry you don't believe me! I promise they are good. I made them at a cooking demo the other night and everyone loved them. A couple of people made them and posted on Facebook that they were good.
