Dough
- 6 oz cream cheese room temperature
- 2 cups flour
- 1 cup butter, room temperature
Pecan Filling
- 1 egg
- ¾ cup brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon butter
- pinch salt
- ¼ teaspoon vanilla
- ½ cup finely chopped pecans
Dough
MIx all ingredients in your food processor until it comes together into a ball. Dough will be sticky.
Flour your hands lightly and roll dough into 1" balls. (Size of balls may vary depending on the size of your tart moulds.)
Press the dough ball lightly into your tart moulds. Use the back of a measuring spoon if necessary to help dough spread in the mould and to leave a nice rounded indentation to hold the filling.
Pecan Filling
Beat the egg and gradually add the sugar, butter, salt and vanilla. Add the pecan bits and stir to mix.
Use a small measuring spoon to fill dough mould indentations about ½ way up.
Bake tassies 25 minutes. Allow to cool slightly before removing from moulds.
