Open House Pecan Tassies

These miniature pecan tarts charm all ages and are a favorite at Wickwood. If your Grandmother didn’t leave you this recipe, treasure it. And pass it along. Makes 24 scrumptious Tassies.
 

1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Using a hand held mixer, cream the butter and cream cheese together and add flour continuing to mix until smooth, about 1 minute longer. Shape into 2 dozen 1” balls, press into 1¾” muffin cups.

2. In a small mixing bowl, mix the egg, brown sugar, melted butter, salt, and vanilla.

3. Divide ½ pecans among the pastry lined pans. Add filling and top with remaining pecans. Bake for 17 minutes. Reduce to 250°F and bake 10 minutes longer. Cool and remove from pan
