Directions
Lightly heat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a mini muffin tin so the muffins don’t stick. In a mixing bowl, beat together the brown sugar, butter, eggs, and vanilla until the mixture is nice and creamy. In a separate bowl, combine the flour and chopped pecans, then gradually stir this into the wet ingredients until everything is well mixed and smooth. Spoon the batter evenly into the prepared muffin cups. Pop them in the oven and bake for about 10 to 12 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let them cool for a few minutes before enjoying!
How To Plate This Dish
Serve warm with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for a delightful treat. They also pair well with a hot cup of coffee or tea, making them great for brunch or afternoon snacks.
Storing Food Safely
Store the muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to three days. For longer storage, freeze them individually wrapped and thaw at room temperature before serving. Reheat briefly to bring back their fresh-baked warmth.
