Time 1h55m

Yield 24 tassies

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, at room temperature, plus 1 tablespoon butter, melted
One 3-ounce package cream cheese, at room temperature
1 cup all-purpose flour
Nonstick cooking spray
1 large egg
3/4 cup packed light brown sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Pinch of fine salt
1/2 cup pecans, finely chopped

Steps:

  • With an electric mixer, beat the 1/2 cup butter and the cream cheese until smooth. Add the flour and beat until fully combined. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator for 1 hour.
  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Spray a 24-cup mini-muffin pan with cooking spray.
  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the melted butter, egg, brown sugar, vanilla and salt until smooth. Set aside.
  • Shape the chilled dough into 24 balls, about 1 inch in diameter. Press each ball into a cup of the muffin pan, spreading evenly and up the sides, then spoon 1 teaspoon of the pecans into each muffin cup. Fill each cup with the egg mixture until evenly distributed, about 1 teaspoon in each. Bake until the filling is set, about 25 minutes. Cool on a wire rack for 10 minutes, and then remove from the muffin pan.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my pecan tassies didn't turn out as well as I hoped. They're a bit dry and the filling is too runny.

These pecan tassies are a bit too sweet for my taste, but they're still good.

These pecan tassies are amazing! I've never had anything like them before. The filling is so rich and creamy, and the crust is perfectly flaky.

These pecan tassies are the perfect holiday cookie! They're buttery, sweet, and have a delicious pecan flavor. I used dark chocolate chips instead of semi-sweet chocolate chips and they turned out great.
