KATHIE LEE GIFFORD'S PECAN TARTS
if you want a surefire hit... these take a little more time to make - in mini muffin tins...but you canNOT stop eating them and they disappear at any party in a flash! This Is A Labor of Love to make individual mini tarts [make it much faster by making a pan's worth and cutting into squares like brownies]- but everyone asks for the recipe NOW... a pretty easy way to spread more joy in the world... EVERYONE loves them - even if they don't like nuts... OR pecan pie!

Steps:
- FOR THE CRUST:.
- Cream together the softened butter and cream cheese.
- Add the flour and beat well.
- Mold into mini muffin tins, muffin cups, or any little container [these are BEST when they are bite-sized].
- Refrigerate in pans overnight.
- FOR THE FILLING:.
- Beat egg well and add oil, vanilla, brown sugar, salt and pecans.
- To assemble: Put a small ball of crust mixture into each hole of a mini muffin tin and, with a wet spoon, press into the bottom and sides. Repeat.
- Then fill each shell to 2/3 full with pecan mixture.
- Bake at 350ยบ for 25 minutes.
- Let cool.
- Note: when I feel too lazy to make little tarts, I have made this as a pie - pressing the crust into a 9 X 5 loaf pan or a 9 inch square pan -- and poured the filling in -- and it satisfies the craving.
