I find these things very addictive. Hope you don't mind me sharing a vice I can't seem to stop. This recipe came via my parents from Patti Davis of Gardner Mass. Hope you enjoy these decadent pastries! 1. Blend cream cheese and the ½ cup butter or margarine until smooth in a large mixing bowl. Add flour, blend well. Chill dough in refrigerator about 2. Shape dough into about 24 one-inch balls. Press into tiny muffin or tart pans (1-¾ in diameter). Place pans on jelly-roll pan.

3. Blend egg, sugar, vanilla, the tablespoon of butter or margarine salt and pecans in a small bowl. Fill pastry cups with mixture.

4. Bake in moderate oven (375 deg.), about 20 minutes, until lightly browned. Cool a minute or two on wire racks before removing from pans. Cool completly.
