Desert Recipes
INGREDIENTS:
1- 3oz. pkg. cream cheese, softened
1 stick of margarine or butter, softened
1
C. flour
Dash of salt
Blend together cream cheese, margarine, flour and salt. Shape into 24 balls; press each ball into 1 3/4″ muffin tins (press dough in bottom and
sides with fingers, do not leave any holes).
Filling:
2 eggs, beaten
1 C. brown sugar
2
T. margarine or butter, melted
1 tsp. vanilla
Dash of salt
1 C. pecans, chopped
DIRECTIONS:
Combine eggs, brown sugar, margarine, vanilla, and salt. Mix well (do not beat with beater, or tops will be crusty instead of a nutty one). Divide pecans evenly in pastry shells. Pour filling in shells, filling 2/3 full. Bake at 350 degrees for 20-25 minutes. Cool slightly before removing from pans. Cool on wire rack. Makes 24. “Nutty” rich–a real favorite.
