Time 52m

Yield 24 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 (15 ounce) package pillsbury all ready pie crusts
2 teaspoons flour
2/3 cup pecans, chopped
3/4 cup brown sugar, firmly packed
1 ounce square semisweet chocolate, melted, cooled
1 tablespoon butter or 1 tablespoon margarine, softened
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 egg

Steps:

  • Allow both crust pouches to stand at room temperature for 15-20 minutes.
  • Heat oven to 375°F.
  • Unfold each crust; remove top plastic sheets. Press out fold lines.
  • Sprinkle each with 1 teaspoon flour. Spread flour evenly over crusts.
  • Invert and remove remaining plastic sheets.
  • Using a 2-5/8" to 2-3/4" round, scalloped cookie cutter, cut 12 rounds out of each crust.
  • Gently press each round, floured side down, into 24 ungreased miniature muffin cups.
  • Divide 1/3 cup of the nuts evenly in pie crust-lined muffin cups. In small bowl, beat brown sugar, chocolate, butter, vanilla, and egg only until smooth (do not overbeat; mixture should not be bubbly).
  • Spoon teaspoonful of filling over nuts in each cup.
  • Sprinkle with remaining nuts.
  • Bake at 375°F for 18-22 minutes or until filling is set and crust is light golden brown.
  • Cool 1 minute; remove from pans.
