Description
Mini-pecan pies in packaged phyllo pastry shells. Easy, impressive and absolutely delicious. Southern living recipe, i think from 11/2007. Just remember to keep stirring the pecan/syrup mixture as you fill the shells to keep the nuts and moisture evenly incorporated. They are great as gifts.
