BESS LONDON'S PECAN TASSIES

Steps:

• With an electric mixer, beat the 1/2 cup butter and the cream cheese until smooth. Add the flour and beat until fully combined. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator for 1 hour.
• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Spray a 24-cup mini-muffin pan with cooking spray.
• In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the melted butter, egg, brown sugar, vanilla and salt until smooth. Set aside.
• Shape the chilled dough into 24 balls, about 1 inch in diameter. Press each ball into a cup of the muffin pan, spreading evenly and up the sides, then spoon 1 teaspoon of the pecans into each muffin cup. Fill each cup with the egg mixture until evenly distributed, about 1 teaspoon in each. Bake until the filling is set, about 25 minutes. Cool on a wire rack for 10 minutes, and then remove from the muffin pan.

PECAN TASSIES

Steps:

• Prepare a grill for indirect heat. If using a charcoal grill, build the hot coals on one side only. If using a gas grill, heat one side only to medium-high heat.
• For the dough: Add the butter and cream cheese to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Cream together until smooth and combined, 3 to 5 minutes. Mix in the flour until just combined. Chill the dough in the refrigerator for 2 hours.
• When the dough is cold and firm, portion it into 2 dozen balls. Add each ball to a tassie pan or a mini muffin pan and, using a tamper dipped in flour, press the dough so that it forms a cup. Refrigerate the dough cups for 30 minutes.
• To make the filling, cream the egg, brown sugar, butter, vanilla, allspice, nutmeg and salt in a large bowl with an electric mixer until smooth, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer the filling to a liquid measuring cup for easy pouring.
• Sprinkle the pecans amongst the refrigerated dough cups. Pour the filling evenly over the pecans.
• Place over indirect heat and bake at 350 degrees F until golden brown and bubbly, 20 to 25 minutes. Cool completely before lightly dusting with confectioners' sugar. Enjoy!
• (Alternatively, you can bake the pecan tassies in a 350 degrees F oven for 20 to 25 minutes.)

PECAN TASSIES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. To make the pastry, whizz the pecans in a food processor until finely ground, then pulse in the remaining ingredients with a pinch of salt until the dough just comes together. Lightly flour your hands to prevent sticking, then roll the dough into 12 small balls. Use your fingers to gently press them into the bottom and up the sides of a 12-hole mini muffin tin. Chill in the fridge while you make the filling.
• Toast the pecans in a dry frying pan for 3-5 mins until lightly toasted and smelling aromatic. Cool a little, reserve 12 of them, then roughly chop the rest. Whisk the remaining ingredients with a pinch of salt, then stir in the chopped pecans.
• Bake the pastry cases for 5 mins, then remove from the oven. If the pastry has puffed up a little, gently press it down with a teaspoon or your fingers. Spoon 1-2 tsps of the filling into each of the pastry cases, then top each with a whole pecan. Bake for 15-20 mins or until the crust turns golden and the filling is set. Leave to cool a little in the tin. Eat warm on their own, or with some cream whipped up with maple syrup.
