NUT CUPS



Nut Cups image

This Nut Cups recipe is from my Great Aunt Millie. Alot of my families recipes were passed down from generation to generation. Several years ago, I revised my grandmothers recipes and added more of my own and my families and put them into a cookbook for safe keeping. This is just one of the many dessert recipes that has been handed down. I hope you enjoy them.

Time 45m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/4 lb margarine
1 (3 ounce) package soft cream cheese
1 cup flour, sifted
3/4 cup chopped pecans
1 egg
3/4 cup brown sugar
1 tablespoon melted butter
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 dash salt

Steps:

  • Blend margarine and soft cream cheese until creamy.
  • Add 1 cup sifted flour.
  • Divide mixture into 16 balls and press into tiny muffins tins.
  • Mix filling ingredients together.
  • Fill nut cups with the filling mixture.
  • Bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 15 minutes.
  • Reduce heat to 250 degrees Fahrenheit and bake for 10 minutes or until done.
  • Let stand a few minutes before removing from tins.

Tips:

  • Choose a nut that fits your taste preferences. For a sweeter treat, use almonds or pecans. If you prefer a more savory snack, try walnuts or pistachios.
  • Roast the nuts before dipping them in chocolate. This enhances their flavor and helps the chocolate adhere better.
  • Use a high-quality chocolate for dipping. The better the chocolate, the better the nut cups will taste.
  • Be patient when dipping the nuts. It takes time to get a smooth, even coating.
  • If you're having trouble getting the chocolate to stick to the nuts, try chilling them in the freezer for a few minutes before dipping.
  • Decorate the nut cups with sprinkles, chopped nuts, or other toppings before the chocolate hardens.
  • Store the nut cups in an airtight container in the refrigerator. They will keep for up to two weeks.

Conclusion:

Nut cups are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. They are a great way to use up leftover nuts, and they can be customized to suit your own taste preferences. Whether you prefer sweet or savory, there is a nut cup recipe out there for you. So next time you are looking for a quick and easy snack, give one of these recipes a try.
