PECAN PIE BITES
Picky-picky Hubby tells me these Pecan Pie Bites are totally addicting. They have a buttery shortbread crust ...... a slightly gooey center and glazed sweet pecans on top. What more can you ask for? Oh yes, they also freeze exceptionally well!!!
CRUST
2 cups all purpose flour
1/3 cup sugar
2/3 cup butter (room temperature)
Mix the above crust ingredients well and press into a 9" x 13" baking dish that has been lined with parchment or no-stick foil (see note below). This mixture will seem crumbly before you bake it, but don't worry about that. Just pat it evenly into the pan and bake in preheated 350° oven for 20 minutes. If you are using a glass baking pan, bake at 325°.
While the crust is baking, mix up the topping:
TOPPING
3 eggs well beaten
1 cup light corn syrup (I use Karo brand)
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
2 tablespoons melted butter
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 + 2/3 cup chopped pecans
Mix well and pour over partially baked crust, making sure the nuts are evenly spread out. Return to the oven and bake for 25 more minutes.
Cool COMPLETELY in pan.
NOTE: The Pecan Pie Bite crust does not stick to the pan, but around the edges of the topping, it does like to stick. To combat that, I line my 9" x 13" baking pan with parchment paper or the new Reynolds Easy Release foil, leaving the ends a little long so I can use them as "handles" to lift out the COMPLETELY COOLED recipe.
Make sure they have cooled this to room temperature before
you cut them into bites.
NOTE: Since we are empty-nesters, this recipe is too big for us, so I cut the baked recipe into thirds and wrap each one in plastic wrap then again in a zip top freezer bag and freeze them.They freeze VERY well.
DO NOT CUT THEM INTO "BITES" UNTIL YOU THAW THEM OUT.
ENJOY !!!
