These tassies were a complete disaster. I followed the recipe exactly and they turned out ужасно.

These tassies were a bit too complicated to make. I would look for a simpler recipe next time.

The crust on these tassies was a bit too dry. I would add more butter next time.

These tassies are a bit too sweet for my taste. I would reduce the amount of sugar in the filling next time.

These tassies are a great way to use up leftover pie crust.

I've made these tassies with both dark chocolate and milk chocolate. I prefer the dark chocolate version, but both are good.

These tassies are a bit time-consuming to make, but they're definitely worth the effort.

The first time I made these tassies, I didn't have any pecans, so I used walnuts instead. They were still delicious!

These tassies are the perfect balance of sweet and salty. The crust is buttery and flaky, and the filling is rich and chocolatey. I highly recommend them!
