My friend, Chrissi made these while on a girl's weekend and they were fantastic. Rich, delicious crust filled with just enough pecan filling so it's not the large mouthful of a pecan pie slice. Simple to make-this ones a real winner. Ingredients:
1 cup flour |
1/2 cup sweet butter |
3 ounces cream cheese |
1 cup brown sugar |
1 teaspoon vanilla |
1 tablespoon butter |
1 egg |
1 cup chopped pecans (or other nut if desired) |
Directions:
1. Dough: Combine ingredients. Roll dough into balls and press into mini muffin tins. Place in freezer for 30 minutes.
2. Filling: Combine all ingredients.
3. Fill dough in muffin tins 3/4 of the way with filling - DO NOT OVERFILL to the top.
4. Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes. Enjoy.
