Dessert

Alcy’s Goody Cups

4- dozen bake 25 minutes

¾ cups butter, softened

2 packages (3 ounces each) cream cheese softened

2 cups all-purpose flour

Filling

1-½ cups packed brown sugar

2 eggs

1-tablespoon butter, melted

48 pecan halves

In a large bowl, beat the butter and cream cheese until light and fluffy. 

Gradually add the flour beating until the mixture forms a ball. Cover

and refrigerate for 15 minutes.

For filling in a small bowl combine the brown sugar, eggs, and butter.

Roll dough into 1-inch balls; press into the bottoms and up the sides

of the greased miniature muffin cups.  Spoon filling into the cups, top

each with a pecan half.

Bake at 350˚ 20 to 25 minutes or until golden brown.  Cool the cookie

for 2-3 minutes before removing from pans to wire rack.

I used also lemon filling, and chocolate filling.
