Best muffins ever. I get raves every time I make them. For an extra special dessert I will put on some cream cheese frosting.

We love these! We’ve made them more than once and since I didn’t make a pecan pie this Thanksgiving we made these for breakfast instead! It is true that you shouldn’t use paper liners, but the recipe does say to grease your muffin tins. (I used paper before and … it was bad…) This last time I used my silicon muffin tin and they popped right out. They are rich and buttery. Like pecan pie. Hence the name! Thank you, thank you, thank you for this favorite!

I have to say I have shared this recipe with so many friends because it is better than a messy over rich pecan pie and a perfect portion. I added 1/4 tsp salt and baked them in my Whoopie pie pan…made 12 of the best tasting muffin I have ever eaten…thanks so much for sharing!

I rarely give anything five oven mitts, but these deserve it! I even overheard my very non-communicative husband tell my father-in-law that they were the best muffins he’s ever had (and he said it with his mouth full no less!)
Make these! You won’t regret it.

These were way, way too sweet. And not in a good way. Also, texture was too dense and wet. Had to throw them away.

I’ve seen two versions of this recipe one with softened butter and one with melted, so which is it ? melted or softened? thanks

hey, just wondering if this recipe calls for salted or unsalted butter? also, when you say ‘softened’ do you mean microwaved or just left out at room temperature? Please help! I would like to make these tomorrow =)

I found a similar recipe in last Nov or Dec Southern Living for mini pecan pie muffins & we’ve made them a couple times but they disappear in no time flat. So good & couldn’t be easier. This will be a staple for all future family holiday meals.

Has anyone tried making these with gluten free flour?

I have made these two times today!! I did 1 stick plus 6 T of butter… so then while it baked my I called my husband and he correctd me in that 2/3 C of Butter is 11 T of butter. They tasted great but way to much butter…..So now they are in the oven again….I hope these turned out ok..I also added 1 teaspoon of vanilla and used salted butter
