These mini pecan pies are great for the holidays or an easy, elegant dessert anytime. The use of light corn syrup lets the pecan goodness shine through, rather than overwhelming with sugary sweetness. They're delicious served warm with vanilla ice cream.

Ingredients

  • ½ cups pecan halves: 1 piece
  • white sugar: 1 cup
  • eggs: 3 piece (beaten)
  • light corn syrup: 0.5 cup
  • dark corn syrup: 0.5 cup
  • butter: 2 Tbsp (melted)
  • vanilla extract: 1 tsp
  • salt: 0.25 tsp
  • (3-inch) ready-to-bake pie shells: 18 piece
