Chrissi's Cream Cheese Nut Cups (Mini Pecan Pies) image

My friend, Chrissi made these while on a girl's weekend and they were fantastic. Rich, delicious "crust" filled with just enough pecan filling so it's not the large mouthful of a pecan pie slice. Simple to make--this ones a real winner.

These mini pies are a great way to use up leftover pecans. They're also a great make-ahead dessert.

These are so easy to make and they taste amazing! I love that I can make them ahead of time and just pop them in the oven when I'm ready to serve.
