Ingredients

For The Crust

8 oz butter ( 2 sticks)softened
8 oz cream cheese softened
2 cups all-purpose flour

For the Pecan Filling

1 cup corn syrup karo
1 cup brown sugar light or dark
2 Tbsp butter melted
1 tsp vanilla extract or 1 vanilla bean seeds scraped
3 large eggs beaten
1 1/4 cups chopped pecans

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees ℉
In a small bowl beat the softened cream cheese and softened butter until creamy. Add the flour and beat until combined. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes. The dough will be soft and slightly sticky.
In the bowl of a stand mixer beat the corn syrup, brown sugar, melted butter, beaten eggs and vanilla until well combined. Stir in the chopped pecans.
Remove dough from refrigerator and roll into 60 1-inch balls, about 10 grams each. Place each ball into a tart pan. I do not grease tart pans. With lightly floured fingers or a tart tamper press each ball into tart pan.
Using a spoon or spouted measuring cup fill each tart shell to about 1/8" from top.
Bake for 20-25 minutes until set and golden brown. Remove from pans and cool on wire rack.
