The filling for these pies is wonderful--just the right amount of sweetness without overdoing it. However, the crust is a bit bland, so I would recommend either making a graham cracker crust or adding sugar to the original. Very good overall.

These are so easy to make and so good. Like little miniature pies. I used walnuts, but next time will use pecans. I made these again this time using pecans, both ways are delicious.

These are great! I used 2 cups of chopped pecans and it was more than enough. Also, I used regular-sized muffin tins and called them Pecan Tarts. Excellent!

This was a quick and easy recipe using items I always have on the shelf. I used pecans in mine since I love pecan pie. I had some pecan bits I put into the mix and put I pecan half on top. They turned out great!

have been making these for yrs., but call them Tea Cakes & always make with pecans. One change I have made is add 1 TB. or so of raspberry preserve/jam, adds a great flavor. I see why so many say the filling is too much, my recipe only calls for 3/4 c. nuts, I would say this recipe calls for too many nuts. the other recipe is a perfect amount of filling for 24 mini size cups. these always seem to be a favorite for everybody.

Great recipe! I use it at Christmas and other special times. I always make them with pecans. Also, there is a wood kitchen tool that makes the pressing and shaping in the small cupcake tins easier. You just dip it in a little flour and press the ball of dough and voila! Already for the filling!
