Pecan Goody Cups

3/4 cup butter, softened
2 packages (3 ounces each) cream cheese, softened
2 cups all-purpose flour
FILLING:
1-1/2 cups packed brown sugar
2 eggs
1 tablespoon butter, melted
48 pecan halves

In a large bowl, cream butter and cream cheese until light a fluffy. Gradually add
flour, beating until mixture forms a ball. Cover and refrigerate for 15 minutes.
For filling, in a small bowl, combine the brown sugar, eggs and butter; set
aside. Roll dough into 48 balls. Press onto the bottom and up the sides of
greased miniature muffin cups. Spoon a scant teaspoon of filling into each cup.
Top each with a pecan half. Bake at 350° for 20-25 minutes or until golden
brown. Cool for 2-3 minutes before removing from pans to wire racks.

Yield: 4 dozen.
