pecan tartlets
something for santa! mini pecan tarts (adapted from a paula deen recipe) crust: 1/2 cup butter, softened 1/2 cup sugar 1 egg 2 cups all purpose flour cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. incorporate egg, then flour. pinch off a ball of dough and place into each mini-tart pan. form crust around sides with your fingers, the thinner the better, but be careful not to have any holes or tears. set aside. filling: 2 tbsps butter, softened 1 1/2 c brown sugar 2 eggs 2 tsp vanilla extract 1/4 tsp salt a LOT of chopped nuts (about 2-2 1/2 cups) cream butter and sugar together, until light and fluffy. incorporate eggs, and vanilla and salt. fill uncooked crusts halfway with chopped nuts. using a squeezy bottle, fill to top with the butter/sugar mix. sprinkle more nuts on top. bake in 325F preheated oven for 20 minutes until lightly golden. makes 48 mini tarts.

As a kid we used to leave a can of beer, a piece of fruitcake, and a carrot. Amazingly it had vanished by the morning.

Divine Domesticity (61 months ago) woop! Looks adorable and delicious Chotda - I may have to try this out on my southern honey. ;)

hi monika--i hope you try it! let me know how it turned out for you. man--i used to leave wads of cash. amazingly it always vanished by morning. alicat--let me know what you and your southern honey think! dapatches (61 months ago) These look good, I will have to try them this week so santa will get them in time. funny santa never ate the fruit cake we left out for him when I was a child...he needed the beer (or something stronger) to help wash it down, I think. eatzycath

Sounds amazingly like the wads of cash I used to leave in my pocket before going out. Mysteriously replaced with half used books of matches.

hi dapatches! even if santa's on a diet, you can make these later for a picnic or something. they travel well. santa's getting picky about his fruitcakes i think. better leave a bottle of ale out. hi eatzycath--it's new! well, sort of new. i heart kmart clearance aisles :) hello anzy--i hope so! happy holidays to you! hello man with matches--in retrospect, i'm not sure the man with the red pants was santa.... hi sunshine--thanks! happy holidays to you! manthatcooks That was a man!?
