Pecan Tassies

• 8 ounce package Philly Cream cheese, softened
• 1 cup butter
• 2 cups flour
• 2 eggs, beaten
• 1 1/2 cups packed brown sugar
• 2 teaspoons vanilla
• 1 1/2 cups chopped pecans

Instructions:
Combine cream cheese and butter, mixing until blended. Add flour. Mix well. Chill. Divide dough into quarters; divide each quarter into 12 balls. Press each ball onto bottom and sides of minature muffin tins. Combine eggs, brown sugar and vanilla; still in pecans. Spoon into pastry shells, filling each cup. Bake at 325 degrees, 30 minutes or until pastry is golden brown. Cool 5 minutes; remove from pans. Sprinkle with powdered sugar if desired.

These taste like minature pecan pies.
