Ingredients
  

  • 1 Pie crust dough For the crust we recommend using a ready made pie crust from your local grocery store’s refrigerator section.

  3. Roll dough on a lightly floured surface and cut out 3 inch diameter circles and about 1/8th inch thickness. Ball up the dough as needed for more circles
  4. Tuck the dough into the muffin tin and gently push it up the sides to create a little bowl
  5. Alternatively, use a wooden tamper to form the shells.
  6. Fill each unbaked pastry shell with the pecan date mixture (approximately 2 teaspoons)
