These little treats are packed with plenty of flavor. The nutty filling sits in rich-tasting mini pastry shells. Delicious! Ingredients:
1/2 cup butter, softened |
1 package (3 ounces) cream cheese, softened |
1 cup king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
filling: |
2/3 cup coarsely chopped cashews |
1/2 cup packed brown sugar |
1 egg |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
Directions:
1. In a small bowl, beat butter and cream cheese until smooth; stir in flour. Shape into 1-in. balls. Press dough onto the bottom and up the sides of ungreased miniature muffin cups. Spoon cashews into shells; set aside.
2. In another small bowl, beat the brown sugar, egg and vanilla until combined; spoon over nuts. Bake at 350° for 20-25 minutes or until filling is set and pastry is golden brown. Cool for 10 minute before removing from pans to wire racks. Yield: 2 dozen.
