• Total Time: 50 mins
• Prep Time: 20 mins
• Cook Time: 30 mins

Ingredients:

Serves: 12

Yield: 12.0 tarts

• 1 (15 ounce) box pre-rolled refrigerated pie crusts (2-pie crust per box)
• 2 large eggs
• ¾ cup sugar
• ¾ cup light corn syrup
• 2 tablespoons melted butter
• 1 cup chopped pecans
• ½ cup chopped Snickers candy bars
• 8 pecan halves
• ¼ cup whipped topping
• 12 thin slices Snickers candy bars

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 350°F
2. Cut each pie crust circle into six pieces. Reshape the dough into rounds, and press one piece of dough into each of the twelve tart pans. Place on a cookie sheet; set aside.
3. Whisk together the eggs, sugar, corn syrup and melted butter until smooth. Stir in the chopped pecans and chopped SNICKERS® Bars. Divide the mixture equally between the tart pans. Bake in a preheated 350°F for 25-30 minutes, or until bubbly or golden brown.
4. Transfer the tarts to a wire rack, and let cool completely before removing from the pans.
5. Decorate each tart with a dollop of whipped topping, a pecan half and a slice of SNICKERS® Bars.
6. Tip: This recipe also can be made as a 9-inch tart. Just line a tart pan with one pie crust circle, and fill it with the pecan & caramel mixture. Bake in a 350°F oven for 45 minutes, or until bubbly or golden brown. Cool before decorating with eight dollops of cream, a pecan half and a slice of SNICKERS® Bars.
