Taste of Home Pecan Pie Mini-Muffins

These little mini muffins truly taste like a pecan pie! You can’t eat just one of these. As a matter of fact when they were cooling and before I had taken some pictures I could not keep Jim away from them. He grabbed one, sat down and no sooner had he sat down he was back in the kitchen grabbing a couple more! These would be great with your Christmas morning cup of coffee or a sweet treat after dinner. No matter when you have them they will quickly become a favorite.

INGREDIENTS
1 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup chopped pecans
2/3 cup butter, melted
2 eggs, lightly beaten

DIRECTIONS
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Melt the butter and set aside to cool completely. In a large bowl combine the brown sugar, flour, and pecans. When the butter is completely cool, combine the butter and eggs, stir into the sugar mixture and combine.
Fill a greased mini muffin cups 2/3 full and bake for 22-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Remove from mini muffin pan and continue to cool on a wire rack.

Enjoy!
