Instructions

Prepare The Pie Crust

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F and have a mini muffin pan ready to go
  • Prepare the pie crust according to the recipe you are following or use a store bought pie crust to create the base for the tartlets
  • Roll out the pie crust to ⅛" thick, cut into 12-3" round circles using a cookie cutter and press the dough into a mini muffin pan
  • Place the shaped pie crust into the refrigerator to chill white you are making the pecan pie filling

Prepare The Pecan Tartlet Filling

  • In a medium bowl, combine the granulated sugar, Karo® Syrup, eggs, melted butter, vanilla extract and salt. Whisk until smooth and creamy; set aside

Add the Chocolate Chips and Pecans

  • Once the dough has chilled for approximately 10 minutes, sprinkle each shaped pie crust with about one tablespoon of chocolate chips and pecan pieces to fill the dough about ¾ full

Fill The Tartlets

  • Once the Pecan Tartlets are filled, place the muffin pan in the preheated oven for 24-28 minutes or until the filling has slightly puffed up and is not moving in the middle and the pie crust is light golden color
  • Remove the pan from the oven and allow the tartlets to cool completely before removing them from the pan, serve and enjoy!
