The Product of My Insomnia--Pecan Pie Mini-Cakes

So the product of my insomnia (or insanity, whatevs) last night was Pecan Pie Mini Cupcakes.

These were very simple, and after a quick midnight run to Walmart I was ready to make them.

Ingredients
1 cup chopped pecans
1 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cup flour
2/3 cup melted butter (10 2/3 tbsp)
2 eggs

Directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Mix all ingredients together and then divide batter between 24 greased mini-muffin cups. Bake 14-18 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.


These were a big hit at work and it wouldn't be a big deal to double the recipe. They really taste like pecan pie but aren't quite as rich. It would be so easy to eat all of them without realizing!

Update: Here's the nutrition info for these:
