Crunchy Pecan Pie Bites, 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 ”, What a great recipe! The hardest part was filling all those little shells, But the taste can’t be beat I actually prefer this to traditional pecan pie, because the sweet isn’t as overpowering I actually filled 6 boxes instead of 5 and still had some filling left I probably could’ve filled some fuller but was afraid of overflowing Regardless, I have a recipe for dessert for Thanksgiving-thanks!
