Tiny Pecan Pies image

Pecan pie is good in any form... and this size makes it SO easy to just grab and go! With a flaky crust and brown sugar crunchy pecan filling, these mini pecan pie's are delicious. Pecan pie is always a holiday favorite and these are great if you want pecan pie but don't want to make a large pie. They'd make a great hostess gift...

Overall, I thought these pies were good, but not great. I would probably try a different recipe next time.

The crust was a bit too thick for my taste. I would recommend rolling it out thinner next time.

These pies were a bit too sweet for my taste. I would reduce the amount of sugar next time.

I've tried many pecan pie recipes over the years, but this one is by far the best. The filling is rich and decadent, and the crust is flaky and buttery. I highly recommend this recipe.

I love that these pies can be made ahead of time. I usually make them a day or two before I need them, and they're just as good.

These pies were a disaster! The crust was soggy and the filling was runny. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong.
