Description

Originally, these were pecan tassies or tarts, but I never have pecans on hand. I usually have walnuts or almonds or some other nut that isn’t pecan. So use whatever nut you have!

Ingredients

  • 4 ounces, weight Cream Cheese, Softened
  • 1 stick Softened Butter Plus 1 Tablespoon Melted, Divided
  • 1 cup All-purpose Flour
  • 1 whole Egg
  • ¾ cups Brown Sugar
  • 1 Tablespoon Butter, Melted
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
  • ⅛ teaspoons Salt
  • ⅔ cups Chopped Nuts Of Your Choice

Preparation

Cream together the cream cheese and 1 stick softened butter until smooth. Add the flour and mix until a ball of dough forms. Wrap and chill in the fridge for 1 hour.

In another bowl, mix the egg, brown sugar, 1 tablespoon melted butter, vanilla and salt until smooth. Place in the fridge until ready to use.

Preheat oven to 325F.

Using an un-greased mini muffin pan, place a little over a teaspoon of dough into each muffin cup. Make a well in each. I used a floured mini tart shaper. Then place 1/2 teaspoon of the sugar mixture into each. (Make sure to give the sugar a quick stir beforehand!) Top with chopped nuts.

Bake for 25 minutes. Let it cool 10 minutes before removing from the pan. Enjoy!
