Found these on FaceBook the other day and decided they looked so good I had to try them, and try I have….about 10 times. These little gems are like eating a piece of pecan pie. Took them when we had dinner last night with some friends and the ladies have all requested the recipe…I can already see them on the Thanksgiving buffet, sitting beside, ever so quietly beside a bowl of whipped cream. You can pop about 10 per hour…..the recipe made 30 mini muffin cups.
1 cup chopped pecans (finely chopped)
1/2 cup flour
1 cup packed light brown sugar
2/3 cup butter, melted
2 eggs, room temperature
1 teas vanilla
Preheat oven to 350 (325 for dark coated pans)
In a medium bowl, combine all ingredients and mix well.
Spray miniature muffin tin with Pam or lightly grease with butter.
Fill each cup 3/4 full. ( I didn’t use paper liners, but if you do, do not grease)
Bake in preheated oven for 13-15 minutes. (Mine took 13 minutes).
How easy is this? Great pecan flavor without the 7000 calories of a piece of pecan pie. This probably only has 3000 calories.
