McHusbands favorite dessert is Pecan Pie. So, when I ran across this (simple) recipe, I thought I’d give it a try.
The cast:
1/2 cup butter, softened
3/4 cup packed light brown sugar
2 eggs, beaten
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
3/4 cup chopped pecans
Pre-heat your oven to 350 and get your muffin tin ready.
Now, cream the butter and sugar*, then add the eggs. Dump in your flour, mix and then add your pecans.
Pour (lumpy) batter into your muffin tins.
Bake for around 20 minutes.
Ta da!
Bottom line: These were gone very quickly. Hubby really liked them!
*If you take out your brown sugar and it’s hard, don’t despair – pop it in the microwave for a bit. It’ll soften right up, and the lumps will squish out.

I’ve made Paula Deen’s pecan pie muffins, and I’m pretty sure just reading this has thrown 15 pounds on my butt.
