Pecan Tassies

I think the official name is Tea Time Tassies, but that is just too cheesy for me. Mom always made these and I love them, so I called her and got the recipe. I am attempting them for a party tonight, so wish me luck...


Pecan Tassie

Crust:
3 oz cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup butter, softened
1 cup sifted flour

Blend cream cheese and butter in mixer. Add flour and mix. Make a ball of dough, chill until moldable (vague, Mom, vague). Roll into 24 one inch balls.

Filling:
3/4 cup brown sugar
1 Tbs soft butter
1 egg
1 tsp vanilla
1/4 tsp salt
2/3 cup broken pecans (Mom uses chopped)

Mix ingrdients. Pour into shells.

Bake at 325 for 20 to 25 minutes.
