1/2 cup butter or margarine, softened
3 ounces cream cheese, softened
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons butter or margarine, melted
3/4 cup brown sugar, packed
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 1/2 cups pecans, chopped
Your first 3 ingredients make the dough for the tart shells.

Place balls into cups of greased Mini-muffin pan.

For filling, combine all ingredients in small bowl; mix well.
