Mini Pecan Pie Bites
All the pecan pie, one bite at a time. No plates, no forks, and they’re ready in about half an hour.
It’s mahjong night, ladies, so let’s make mini pecan pie bites for Friendsgiving. All the pie, and no forks.
You’ll need
Makes 30. About 10 minutes, plus 15 to 20 minutes to bake.
- 2 boxes (15 each) frozen mini phyllo shells
- 1 cup chopped pecans
- ¾ cup brown sugar
- 2 eggs
- 2 tbsp melted butter
- 1 tsp vanilla
- A pinch of salt
Make it
Heat the oven to 350°F. Whisk the sugar, eggs, butter, vanilla and salt, then stir in the pecans.
Set the shells on a baking sheet and spoon in the filling.
Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, until set.
Let them cool before serving.
Lady M’s tips
- A small spoon keeps the shells from overflowing.
- Make them a day ahead and keep them in an airtight container.
- Don’t love pecans? Chopped walnuts work too.
On my table
Stack them on a tiered stand next to the mat so everyone can reach them.
That’s it, and you’re ready for game night. Bird Bam Cheers! ...and happy mahj-ing!
