I was first introduced to this recipe from my neighbor last month. I am now on “batch 18!” These are gems ... they freeze well ... and FYI - give them away quick - seriously, addicting! Rating is 10 stars!

Just made these. The best! They are delicious. They were easy to throw together and didn't stick to the pan. Recipe made exactly 24. Gonna run to get more pecans to make more to give away at church rummage sale!

Wow! These muffins are way too good to be so easy! If you're a pecan pie fan, you'll love them. I took them to a meeting and got many recipe requests.

but I never know whether it should be dark or light brown sugar or does it NOT MATTER?

These are so good and sooo easy. The brown sugar really shines through. I made regular size muffins and got 8 so will certainly double next time. Mine were a little too "crusty" on the outside (baked for 15 min) so maybe a minute or two less next time. So yummy with my morning eggs!
