Mini Bourbon Pecan Pies Recipes

Steps:

• In a food processor, pulse half the pecans until coarsely chopped; reserve remaining pecans. Combine eggs and sugars until well mixed. Add next 5 ingredients and chopped pecans., Unroll crust into a 9-in. metal pie plate; flute edge. Pour filling into crust. Arrange reserved pecan halves over filling. Place filled pie in freezer for 30 minutes. , Preheat oven to 425°. Bake until crust is set, about 15 minutes. Reduce oven setting to 350°; continue baking until pie is puffed and set in the middle, about 1 hour (tent loosely with foil if needed to prevent overbrowning). Cool. If desired, serve with vanilla ice cream.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375°F. In food processor, place flour, cocoa, 2 tablespoons granulated sugar and the salt. Cover; process, using quick on-and-off motions, until blended. Add shortening. Cover; process, using quick on-and-off motions, until particles are size of small peas. With food processor running, pour water all at once through feed tube just until dough leaves side of bowl. Gather dough into a ball.
• Divide dough evenly among 12 ungreased regular-size muffin cups, pressing dough in bottoms and up sides of cups. Sprinkle pecan halves and chopped chocolate into crust-lined cups. In medium bowl, beat egg, brown sugar, melted butter, corn syrup, maple syrup, bourbon and vanilla with whisk. Spoon mixture evenly into muffin cups, about 4 teaspoons per cup.
• Bake 20 to 25 minutes or until filling is golden and slightly puffed in center. Cool 30 minutes; remove from pan to cooling rack.
• In chilled small bowl, beat whipping cream and 2 tablespoons granulated sugar with electric mixer on high speed until soft peaks form. To serve, spoon about 2 tablespoons whipped cream onto each mini pie. Sprinkle with shaved chocolate.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Mix together eggs, sugar, corn syrups, butter, bourbon, vanilla and salt until well blended.
• Prick the sides and bottom of the pie shell with a fork at 1/2-inch intervals. Spread the pecans on the bottom and pour the mixture over them. Bake for 35 to 45 minutes, until just set around the edges but still slightly loose in the center. (It will continue to set as it cools.)
• Place on a rack to cool slightly.

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Mix the white sugar, brown sugar, and butter together in a bowl. Stir in the corn syrup, eggs, and bourbon; fold in the pecans. Pour the mixture into the pie crust.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes; reduce heat to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C); continue to bake until the pie is set, about 25 minutes more. Allow to cool completely on a wire rack before serving.

Steps:

• For pastry, in a bowl combine 1 c flour baking powder and salt. In a mixing bowl combine the 1/2 c butter cream cheese and 2 tsp sugar. Mix until well blended, stir in the flour mixture, press firmly into a ball with hands. Divide in half. Set aside 1 half. On a lightly floured surface roll out dough to a 1/8 inch thickness. Lightly spray 2 twelve cup mufin pans with nonstick spray. Cut out 12 2 1/4 inch rounds, I suggest using a cookie cutter or biscuit cutter. Press the rounds evenly into the bottoms and sides of the muffin pan cups. Repeat with remaining dough. Then refridgerate about 10 to 15 minute.
• Meanwhile , in a medium bowl beat the eggs slightly. Stir in the granulated sugar, corn syrup, bourbon, melted butter, and vanilla until blended. Spoon a heaping teaspoonfull of chopped pecans into each pastry lined cup. Top with the corn syrup mixture. Be careful not to put too much, if the cornsyrup mixture goes above the pastry it can stick and be difficult to remove after baking. Bake at 350 degrees for 20- 25 min, until lightly browned and a toothpick comes out clean. Cool , and sprinkle with powdered sugar before serving.
• Enjoy!
