Ingredients

Butter and all-purpose flour for muffin cups

1

                        box (14.1 oz) refrigerated Pillsbury™ Pie Crusts (2 Count), softened as directed on box

1

package (8 oz) cream cheese, softened

1/2

cup sugar

1

egg

3/4

cup canned whole berry cranberry sauce

1/2

cup glazed pecans, if desired

Preparation

Heat oven to 375°F. Using butter, grease 12 regular-size muffin cups; sprinkle with flour.

Using 4-inch cutter, cut 12 rounds from pie crusts. Fit 1 round into each muffin cup.

In large bowl, beat cream cheese and sugar with electric mixer on medium speed until smooth. Beat in egg until well mixed. Divide mixture evenly among crust-lined cups.

Bake 20 to 25 minutes or until crust edges are golden. Cool completely, about 45 minutes, before removing from pan. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve, up to 3 days.

To serve, top each mini cheesecake pie with 1 tablespoon cranberry sauce. Sprinkle with pecans.
