Suggest a better descriptionLightly coat 2 miniature muffin pans with vegetable cooking spray, each pan having 12 muffin cups that hold 2 teaspoons each. To make the pastry, in a food processor fitted with a dough blade, combine the cream cheese and butter. Add the flour and pulse until well blended and a soft dough forms. Wrap the dough tightly in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 1/2 hours or until ready to use. Shape the dough into 24 balls, using about 2 teaspoons dough for each. Wrap the balls individually in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes. Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F. Unwrap the dough balls, place in the prepared muffin pan and press with floured fingertips against the bottom and sides to form shells. Place the pans of pastry shells in a freezer while you prepare the filling. This helps prevent dough shrinkage while baking--the shells will not freeze during this time. To make the filling, in a medium bowl, combine the brown sugar, butter, vanilla and salt and stir until well blended and smooth. Stir in the pecans. The filling will be thick. Fill each shell with 2 teaspoons of filling. Bake on the middle oven rack until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean and the crusts are golden brown, 20 minutes. Set the pans on a wire rack to cool for 5 minutes, remove the tartlets from the pans to cool completely. Serve at room temperature. Store wrapped tightly in plastic wrap for up to 4 days, or wrap in freezer paper and freeze for up to 1 month.
