There’s nothing easier and cuter than giving homemade chocolate bark for the holidays. This year I made four different kinds (L-R):
Inspired by my friend who likes mini things (mini ketchup bottles, mini Tabasco bottles, mini collectible spoons, etc., etc) I decided to make mini pecan pies for Thanksgiving. By individually bagging them this allowed the guests to take a little pie to go at the end of the night – is there anything better? They’re super easy and incredibly delicious – give it a try!
To make a dozen mini pies:
Crust:
Filling:
When I made these mini pies I used muffin cups and lined them with dough – though I have mixed feelings about this since the crust tended to stick to the paper, but they were super east to remove from the pan – do whatever you see fit – with or without. Mix the filling and ladle into the empty cups. I made one batch of regular pecan pies and one batch of chocolate pecan pies – if you want to make chocolate pecan pies – place 4-5 chocolate chips in the bottom of the unfilled crusts and then ladle in the filling.
